Sounds vaguely libertarian, but I wouldn't say it is red.

The "taxes are theft" meme moves around RW circles on heavy rotation.  Occasionally it falls out of favor -- especially following a massive tax cut -- but it resurfaces soon after.  Here's an example courtesy of Fox NewsWikipedia has a more intellectual description.

At no point do the tax-haters explain how the world works without taxation … but they still hate it.

Wikipedia associates the 'taxes are theft" meme with several right wing extremist groups, but does not mention Republicans specifically or reds generally.  Sounds about right.

Wiki Wrote:The idea of taxation as theft is a viewpoint found in a number of political philosophies. Under this view, government transgresses property rights by enforcing compulsory tax collection.  Voluntaryists, anarcho-capitalists, as well as Objectivists and most minarchists and libertarians see taxation as a clear violation of the non-aggression principle.

Even this progressive blue leaning Whig doesn't really like to pay taxes, but I haven't come up with alternatives either.
You need to figure out a way to declare yourself as a non profit person and then legally avoid taxation like Eric.
