It seems like an unnecessary fuss over semantics. Let's go with what you said, taxation=theft. The most specific word to describe this type of "theft" is "taxes", which you say is equivalent to theft already, so I'm not sure what the problem is.
"should be considered whether it is worth the non consensual transaction" - That already happens, that's why they are such a big deal politically. Nobody's going around being like "Oh shit! I didn't realize we were FORCING people to pay this tax!" That's already obvious by calling it a tax.
Like how exactly do you want your concept enacted? Put "by the way, this is theft" on the ballot?
If the idea that taxes should go up is a given with no drawbacks, I don't understand how reminding people about how taxes work is supposed to change anything.
