If the world called it something else besides "tax" would you consider it theft still? Let's say tariff or social burden?
Definition of theft. 1a : the act of stealing specifically : the felonious taking and removing of personal property with intent to deprive the rightful owner of it. b : an unlawful taking (as by embezzlement or burglary) of property.
Even if the word tax is in the equation I don't see how it's "theft", specifically.
