You are not the authority on words, LL. When a legislature empowered by We the Peoplen enact taxation, it is not theft except in your mind.
You are entitled to your opinion, but maybe that three other people hold that opinion with you tells you just how wack it is.

Tell me how taking money from me against my will is not theft and I'll vote for Obama and donate extra to your unemployment this year.
It's not theft unless you can prove that it is not legitimate for people to come together and form a government,
that then becomes the legitimate authority over those people.
Well I could certainly prove to the best of ones ablity when dealing with issues of the past that almost every founder and especially James Madison the primary constitution author were opposed to taxes based on labor.
Unfortunately for you, I don't need to, because you don't get to change the meaning of words. Theft is still theft regardless of how many people support it. By your logic what is occuring in Syria is OKAY because it is government sanctioned. Slavery is legit if the government sanctions it. So on and so forth.
