When someone takes 100% of the fruits of your labor it is slavery. What do you call it when someone takes 45% of the fruits of your labor?

If you’re going for “taxation is slavery” then just say it, I don’t feel like playing games.

It’s called “getting back more than 45% in returns in the form of a functioning and secure society.” That’s not what slaves got in return for 100% of their income.
