Taxation is not theft or an act of thieving. Taxation is our share that we must give back to society that transforms into government welfare services and others.

Your statement might have been true a few decades back. But now, most of the tax revenue is being spent on the defense budget, and for giving salaries to the governmental staff.

I will support your statement that taxation is not a
Theft, actually it is a legal matter even in the bible it is written there that we need to pay for tax to our government.

Along with Bible support for taxes is Bible support for obeying the laws of your country.

The US Constitution says no un-apportioned taxes. The income tax is an excise tax that operates like an un-apportioned tax. Thus, it is a tax that uses a legal loophole to make it work, but also one that is against the spirit of the founding documents.

But, in America there is deeper law than that. America is a "private property" country. Taxation takes private property away from people. The only reason why people lose in court is, a few Government people have found how to use the law in ways that the people don't understand. If the people all understood what Karl Lentz (http://www.broadmind.org/ - Google and Youtube search on "Karl Lentz Common law"), personal taxation would be gone.

If personal taxation were gone, Government would have to get its money from the legal places - taxes on interstate transportation, and on USA import/export. Government would shrink, jobs would come back to America, and America would become the strongest nation in the world, economically, again.

So, it is the criminal taxation in America that is stealing from people and bringing the whole nation down.
