Taxation is:

  • Theft
  • Extortion
  • Invasion of privacy
  • The root of all political evil

Taxation is theft, purely and simply even though it is theft on a grand and colossal scale which no acknowledged criminals could hope to match. It is a compulsory seizure of the property of the State’s inhabitants, or subjects.

― Murray N. Rothbard
