I’m not sure what you’re getting at. A nation — or any of its subsidiary levels of government — couldn’t exist without taxation.
Sure you have to have taxation to operate government - the issue is how much government and how much and what type of taxes.
My personal opinion is that taxes upon “income” - the fruits of one’s own personal labor or creativity - is a thinly disguised form of slavery, and is thereby inherently immoral. Especially in a nation that fought a bloody civil war over that very issue, among others.
After all, if a man doesn’t possess his own work, what does he possess? Perhaps his soul, but nothing more.
Tax consumption, tax imports, or tax property. But do not tax labor, for it belongs to no one save he who created it.
