I actually have this quaint theory that an income tax is slavery by other means. If a 100% tax rate is pure slavery (you don’t own the fruit of your labor), then a lesser percentage is but a matter of degree.
You could frame it that way, but you’d also have to contrast whether or not a people should have a government and if that government should be granted some authority over those same people. If so, then how is it funded?
The question is not new. The start of the Book of Kings is God recommending that people not have a king but would not consider it sinful if they chose to have one.
The king is primarily responsible for defense against marauders, but that takes an army of those willing to fight. They can’t eat their spears and rocks so...
Of course, like governments today, kings abuse power.
