Yes, the government could just not take anybody's money away in the first place
but nobody much seems to like that idea, because we all have plans for what should be done with everybody else's money.

If they don't take our money, private healthcare, security, insurance, waste management and transport companies will.
I'm happier giving my money to someone that's accountable to me and other voters, rather than to shareholders.

Private companies don't take our money.
We give it willingly, or else we keep it.

Well yes.
With healthcare, you can either give money to them willingly, or die.

This is also true of food shops.
Currently not owned by the nation and funded by tax, but we look to the day.
