I feel like you're kind of pigeon holing the argument by sayingg all money is by definition the result of exploitation.

Nobody is going to argue that ExxonMobil should be able to do that, I still don't see why that makes taxes going towards good things instead of bad a bad thing if those taxes weren't the result of exploitation.

Like if the argument is that it's impossible to make money without exploiting somebody were still missing a few steps in how we go from some of the clueless capitalism the world has ever seen to an egalitarian society with no intermediate step.

Proves aren't getting the means of production without taking them from the people whoncutrently have them and i think getting a government to enforce that redistribution is a lot more likely than them giving it up willingly or forming an insurgent labor army that doesn't immedoatly get lut down by those well funded police forces.
