The welfare recipient directly and consciously increases the amount a government must take from other citizens whenever they claim a benefit.
Welfare beneficiaries create the demand for state confiscation of others wealth.
It is that simple and no matter of elaborate sophistry alters this.
The 'aggression' of taxation is empowered by citizens collective agreement and desire to be governed and the implied need to tax and spend collective resources that government implicitly demands.
Libertarians are free to go somewhere there is no government and avoid this 'confiscation' but you will be on your own and you never actually choose such an insane enactment of your stated beliefs because, well, it would be extremely damaging to your life expectancy, comfort, wealth and general well being.
I'll spell it out for you a little clearer then. The welfare recipient has no say in either how much the government spends nor how much it collects, so their acceptance of available funds is not an act of aggression against legitimate property owners.
The aggression is committed by those forcibly expropriating property owners or doing so through threats of force.
Since there is no contradiction of libertarian principles here, there is no possibility of hypocrisy.
