The Government shouldn't collect taxes at all. Taxation is theft.

And having government services that protect society and borrowing to pay for them, that is owed in the future is also theft from future generations.  While in a perfect world, people would pay for everything needed voluntarily, apparently the body politic doesn't seem to know how to, or want to, so thus they have the government do this.
