Easy. If I reject your premise that taxes are the government stealing from me, then the question isn't even worth talking about.
You only want to debate these ideologies on your own terms, though, where everyone is misguided because you assume they accept your premises and reject your conclusions, whereas many reject both.

steal - To take (the property of another) without right or permission.
I dont remember giving the government a permission to take money from me. Where does your (gov) right to my money comes from? Just because you claim it is so? Verbal claim is not a right.
So you reject first definition of the word and conclude that my question isnt worth talking about. Simply put, you refuse to take facts into account only because they dont fit your agenda.
My own terms? Its from a dictionary.
