wants to take your money against your will and allocate it

Speak for yourself

I pay my taxes with a smile because they mean my neighbours won't ever be likely show up at my door to steal from me when they don't have enough to eat. And that my brother can have his cancer treatments without paying the insane costs associated with those treatments. And that my mother can enjoy her garden for the last 20 years of her life instead of working until she croaks.

The taxes also go to prisons and cops. Where they primarily go is a matter of politics.
