If you don't believe that your money is yours, please send it all to me

The fundamental problem with this argument is that once you accept it, the
only basis for ownership is "might makes right". If your money isn't yours,

And if you disagree, what's the difference between my stealing money from
you at gunpoint and the government doing it?
