(n) Money pick-pocketed by the government.
Fred: Why is it that every time I visit the store, I feel like my pocket gets picked?
Wilma: That's the sales tax, dear. The government can do it legally. But if a pickpocket does it, he goes to prison.

Fred: Yay. I bought a house worth $200,000. Woohoo!
Government: Okay Fred. Gimme $5000 NOW.
Fred: WTF?
Government: Do you not get it? I said give me $5000 now, and you will do so every year you numbskull. It's called the "property tax". If you don't, I will seize your house.
Fred: What???? But it is my property. Why are you forcibly taking away a part of it.
Government: Because you're my bitch.
