Pretending that your definition of morality is the only legitimate one is naive.

Is it moral for the mafia to use the threat of force to take a percentage of a business's income? I'd submit that it's not and I suspect that you agree with that.(I'll concede that I don't know you and can't speak for you)

Why does that same behavior become moral if/when a government does it?

Yet, one of those entities can do it legally.
