The logic is the same as taxing any income.  For example, box 1 wages include the amount withheld for taxes; it is all taxable income and you pay the taxes out of that income.  The amount withheld for taxes is just an amount of your income you are making a tax payment with as you go and you get credit for that already made payment on your tax return.
