The use of terms such as "taxtortion" and "extortion" to describe taxation is a matter of personal opinion and perspective. However, it is important to recognize that taxation is a necessary component of modern societies and is used to fund public goods and services that benefit everyone. While it is possible to argue that taxation may be excessive or unjust in certain circumstances, it is important to ensure that any criticisms of taxation are based on a clear understanding of its purpose and the benefits it provides to society as a whole.
