Rex is implying that all taxation is theft, yet he is not providing his own, clearly better, solution. And that's where his "I want to bark but not bite" argument falls down.
I'm not advocating any specific course of action beyond "Start thinking of your tax dollars as an involuntary contribution to a System, and adjust your perception accordingly." That's it.
I could do a lot of good by stealing other people's money. Hell, even other people's money they aren't using, I could do a LOT of good things. But that wouldn't make it moral or right. (Even if it were somehow codified to be legal.)
