Try to imagine services without taxes. Will be something like in XVII Medieval Europe – you can be murdered for no reason. Just because. That's why tax is important. Also, giving back is a good feeling. And only after that, you will get your lamborghini

I can imagine a lot of good services without taxes, better and cheaper education, medical care, security more self responsibility... If we pay directly for services in a free decentralized market there is competition between service providers where the best service & price will win. i can "give back" without paying taxes even with a better feeling and in aw more efficient manner. paying taxes has nothing to do with being social or solidarity because you are not doing by your own free will but because the state forces you. Getting robbed is no good feeling, perhaps for masochist... You think taxes are not robbery? try and go ahead and don't pay your taxes, the state will kidnap you and put you in prison if you resist the state will use violence as long until you give up or until you are dead. pretty much like in Medieval Europe where people had to pay much taxes to the aristocrats. A major reason for the french revolution or 30 years of farmer wars. While kings and aristocrats lived from the work and productivity of the people, people themselves were starving and dying. The first documentations of demands for human rights in our history were during that period. No offense but your argument is 180 degree opposed to reality. Social peace comes from early trades between humans, where people learned that social cooperation is better than killing and ripping each other of,the state wasn't envolved in that process
