I'm well aware of what OP's intent was. My comment was highlighting the inherent absurdity of complaining about taxes, which are by no definition "theft" and which are actually used to enrich your fellow man (no, I don't need to hear about military spending or whatever other government outlay you personally object to; even in the US there are still tax funded programs that benefit the average person, despite the Republicans best efforts), rather than directing your anger at the far greater amount of our productivity that is literally stolen from us by the super wealthy.
