There is no moral difference between the mugger's threat to shoot you for not forking over and the government's threat to take your property or throw you in jail for not forking over.
The difference is that the government's actions are based on laws, which were passed by elected representatives and thus indirectly by the public. Not "forking over" to the government is the same as not paying a debt and claiming that you didn't personally agree to contracts being actually binding.
Maybe you're one of those idiots who actually believe you can have a functioning society without rules that everyone has to adher to even if they personally don't agree with all of them, but that belief does not make it true.
There is a big difference between laws against actual crimes (mala in se) and pure redistribution, ie robbing some to pay others, which is all welfare and social security are.
Bullshit. Welfare and social security are A) a form of insurance against misfortune (which anyone can suffer) and B) the result of a consensus that a humane, civilized society should not let anyone starve, freeze or die of easily curable diseases no matter who they are.
