Of course.
As for you paying your taxes, I've reasonable doubts; considering that you've demonstrated you'll not hesitate to lie, attempt subject change when the discussion turns in a direction which doesn't favor your arguments, engage in name-calling, prejudiced false narrative, you tend to come across as someone who's not even out of their teens. Which doesn't rule out you aren't in some way burdened with tax obligation -nor is it to say I couldn't be mistaken but uh... yeah... that'd be a bit of a pyrrhic victory on your part...
In any case, none of this snipe hunt you've been trying to lead has anything to do with your original, demonstratedly erroneous assertion that government welfare programs violate the Takings Clause.
Naturally, there are other reasons underlying said erroneous state, one of which being that "your" hard currency isn't your private property; it belongs to the federal government and you are allowed the privilege of co-ownership to use it as a representational medium of exchange. What DOES belong to you is the possessed quantity of the collectively agreed upon fiction hard currency represents. Think that's not the case? You could always try burning a dollar to ash in front of a treasury agent to see whether or not you're charged with destruction of government property.
But the most salient reason is the fact that taxes are paid to the government and, once paid, your privilege of privatized ownership relative to the rendered value-fiction ends, said funds become property of the general Public, designated as the charge of federal/state/local governments to use as is seen fit in accordance with the law for the Public good. Ergo, no Takings Clause violation.
