So you believe that all adult citizens should pay some tax, but then the government is taking that tax money from them, which, in your words "assumes the government is a better steward of the funds than the citizen who earned it". How does the argument only apply to the taxes (e.g. inheritance tax) that you don't approve of?
I said it applied "least of all" to inheritance tax, you responded that it did apply, which didn't contradict me. It applies less to inheritance tax than other taxes because while a citizen can set out instructions for how the money should be used when they die, if they are still alive they can use their 'stewardship skills' more effectively to react to events unforeseen at the time the set of instructions was written (or, you know, they could make decisions on a case-by-case basis rather than following a set of instructions, if they thought this made for better stewardship). But really this is an irrelevant amusement; what matters is that your argument applies to all taxes, not that it applies less to inheritance tax. If you don't get that, just ignore this paragraph.
