I know tax philosophy runs across the spectrum on the tfp. I myself think that taxation is a necessary part of living in a formal, codified group. That at some point resources can and must be pooled to serve the greater good.

I know that some people think that taxation is tantamount to being raped and i'm not really certain why.

I'm just curious as to peoples opinions on taxes and their justification for said opinions. Please keep partisanship and conservative v. liberal out of it.
Some taxation may be needed, I will not argue that, but taxes should not be used to take money from one group of people to give to another, for the sake of buying votes. That is robbery.
