If it helps, I usually refer to taxation as theft.
What else would you call it when something of yours is taken without consent or by threat of violence?
One day we should demand that the statists give us a percentage. That's step #1.
Step #2 would be under what authority was this percentage bestowed upon us.

Imagine your parents joined a country club where kids were free. Growing up, you weren’t charged because your parents paid their membership fees. Now that you are an adult, however, you have to pay a fee. You can quit the club or you can pay the fee, but you can’t moan about the fee being theft while swimming laps in the pool.

These folks would, and I'm sure they would expect free swimming trunks too

Did anybody put a gun on the kids to pay the fee or if they refuse to pay, they would be jailed or shot?
