Why does the government have the right to take stuff that they didn't earn? The government is supposed to work for the people. Your structure has all the people working for the benefit of the government. That's often referred to as Fascism or Communism, depending on the reasons given for the theft.

Hmmmmm.... how exactly does government help the poor get educated to advance in society, or maintain roads, or police, or fire, or defense, or healthcare and help feed those who can't do for themselves. Or to pay for the administrators and programs we need?
If government does not tax or does not tax enough...... how do we pay for government to work for the people?
You may not see a need for Education or healthcare or police or whatever, but the majority may and so taxes become a necessity.
