You don’t agree to pay it. You can’t opt out and if you don’t pay you get put in jail. How is this not theft?

    Which specific tax are you referring to? Most taxes make sense in the USA, income tax, sales tax, property tax and such are just payments for services.

    However, I do agree that inheritance tax is theft. Also, how the USA considers winning prizes/cash from sweepstakes, game shows, lottery as a form of income so you don’t actually win what was stated is also theft
