I have correctly assumed for a number of years your political views are closely associated with that of a socialist and socialism, some of the identifying characteristics being:

you do not defend rights associated with property ownership;

Sure I do. Don’t steal. Taxes aren’t stealing.

As I correctly pointed out, you do not defend rights associated with property ownership;

You advocate using the force of taxation to acquire the property of an identifiable group of people, which is then to be “redistribute” by the hand of government to another identifiable group for that group’s personal economic needs. And that, my friend is robbery, AKA stealing!

“To lay with one hand the power of the government on the property of the citizen [a working person’s earned wage] and with the other to bestow upon favored individuals, to aid private enterprises and build up private fortunes is none the less a robbery because it is done under forms of law and called taxation.”____ Savings and Loan Association v.Topeka,(1875).

“The property which every man has in his own labor, as it is the original foundation of all other property, so it is the most sacred and inviolable. The patrimony of the poor man lies in the strength and dexterity of his own hands; and to hinder him from employing this strength and dexterity in what manner he thinks proper, without injury to his neighbor, is a plain violation of this most sacred property.” ___ Butchers’ Union Co. v. Crescent City Co., 111 U.S. 746 (1884)

Taxes aren’t stealing. If you don’t want to pay them, you could always move to a different country.

Unlike your willingness to use taxation to acquire the property of one group of people and transfer that property to another group of people for their personal economic needs, I support our written Constitution, part of which commands that private property shall not be taken for public use without just compensation. I know socialists do not support that provision of our constitution, but there it is, in black and white.

In any event, and in response to your snarky post, the manner in which taxes [imposts, duties, excises and direct taxes] are laid, and how that tax revenue is used, can certainly define if “robbery” has occurred, as pointed out by our very own Supreme Court:

“To lay with one hand the power of the government on the property of the citizen [a working person’s earned wage] and with the other to bestow upon favored individuals, to aid private enterprises and build up private fortunes is none the less a robbery because it is done under forms of law and called taxation.” ____ Savings and Loan Association v.Topeka,(1875).

Additionally, here is how one of our forefathers summarized the point in question:

“Under a just and equal Government, every individual is entitled to protection in the enjoyment of the whole product of his labor, except such portion of it as is necessary to enable Government to protect the rest; this is given only in consideration of the protection offered. In every bounty, exclusive right, or monopoly, Government violates the stipulation on her part; for, by such a regulation, the product of one man’s labor is transferred to the use and enjoyment of another. The exercise of such a right on the part of Government can be justified on no other principle, than that the whole product of the labor or every individual is the real property of Government, and may be distributed among the several parts of the community by government discretion; such a supposition would directly involve the idea, that every individual in the community is merely a slave and bondsman to Government, who, although he may labor, is not to expect protection in the product of his labor. An authority given to any Government to exercise such a principle, would lead to a complete system of tyranny.” ___ See Representative Giles, speaking before Congress February 3rd, 1792

And now that we have reviewed part of our Constitution in reference to taxation, I will add another characteristic to my list which identifies a socialist:

They do not support an equal per capita federal tax whenever a “direct tax” is laid upon the citizens of the United States, as our Constitution commands.

When it comes to healthcare Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have no moral compass whatsoever. They refuse to make the distinction between CHARITABLE GIVING and tax tyranny to support the health care needs of millions of illegal entrants and foreign aliens.
