Net wages is post withholding. I don't understand the point you're trying to make. Net wages equals gross wages minus taxes (and other deductions). Taxes (and other deductions) reduce net wages but don't (directly) affect gross wages. That said, workers may demand higher gross wages to compensate, so the end result of higher taxes _may_ be that gross wages go up and net wages stay the same, or somewhere in between.
