The state determines laws for society, with minimal input by the citizenry, and then enforces them under threat of force. "Give us your money or we'll show up at your door with guns, take you away, and take what we're 'entitled' from your family. ". One might think this is the modus operandi of any given crime syndicate, but it's also the essence of the state's attitude toward paying taxes.

I'm not sure if it's statism or not, but any institution whose authority derives from force and intimidation can be accused of thuggery - which is really where our federal government is heading.
