That's nothing more than the sociofascist concept of the "fair share" without any method named to determine what that "fair share" should be except for the very same government entity that then decides where it should be spent on and on whom. If you think taxes aren't taken at gun point, then how, exactly, are they collected?

While you are there, you would benefit from some additional research on this notion that there should be no government. As I have said many times, libertarianism is seductive at first......but there is a reason why so many intelligent people have been drawn to it, and then walked away. You are in between Step 1 and Step 2.

Yeah, I was childish once upon a time, and accepted your point of view. Then I grew up and saw clearly what was happening, and then became a libertarian anarchist.
I progressed from socialism (as a teen) to libertarianism. You, obviously by your own admission, are still stuck in the socialist aspic. It is socialism that is the anachronistic philosophy, still with the notion that if we (any group) simply allow the intellectual socialists (you and people like you) to be in charge, we'll all live happy productive lives.
It's as childish a notion as one could possibly have.
