If a stranger walks into your house with a gun and says, “Give me your money?”
That’s called armed robbery.
But what is it called when a politician walks into your house with a gun and says, “Give me your money?”
That’s called a tax.
To the victim or taxpayer, the economic effect is much the same. Is there a difference?
Theoretically, the first situation involves an involuntary taking, while the second is done voluntary by the taxpayer in compliance with lawful requirements.
The problem is that Congress acts like a drug addict for spending money for political benefit, and raising taxes (or borrowing) so it can spend more money to keep up with its addiction.
