Taxation has, as it's stated goal, to help the poor, via welfare and other social programs. 'Wealth redistribution'. What they end up doing is robbing Peter, pocketing some, and then giving back to Peter, after he jumps through some hoops. Granted, they also rob Paul, but we're suggesting not taking from Peter in the first place.

No, Taxation has, as it's stated goal, the funding of government.

WELFARE has as it's stated goal the helping of the poor.

Point.
