The surprising psychology behind being rich
Can you show one "non-abusive" government that confiscates people's properties? I fail to see one. And I see many proving the opposite.

If you consider taxes to be a form of property confiscation, then all governments confiscate property, and therefore all governments are abusive. I don't think that's a very convincing argument against taxation.
