Some taxes are useful (roads, justice system, police, some defense, etc). Many taxes however are simply theft.
The only way taxes are fair is when it impacts everyone. When a tax takes money from one group for the benefit of the other, it's theft.
A universal consumption tax is about the only thing that is fair as it's proportional to gains and gains are generally (albeitly imperfectly) proportional to shared infrastructure built, maintained and defended using taxes. Unless the additional revenue benefits everyone, it's hard to increase.
Our entire society is constructed to remove wealth from many people and funnel it to a few. If taxation is theft, then what is rent? What about the fact that any business pays its employees less than the value of the work they do? Once you start to redefine "theft" in such a wide way, most of the economic and social activity we engage in on a daily basis becomes "theft".
