Taxation is theft is too weak. It's much worse than that

> I think a better way to put what was written is ~~taxation~~ theft, of itself, is good, because it is a way to distribute certain goods common to all men in a more equitable manner.

I fixed it for you.

Do you mean the results of taxes in some cases are good?

> distribute certain goods common to all men in a more equitable manner

Equitable according to how? You? Some bureaucrat? Why do some people get to decided what is "equitable" while other's opinions are ignored?

> form of rent or collection

These are voluntary. If I don't like the rent for a house / apartment in most cases I can go find another place. If there is a collection I give what I can or what I think I should.
