Are you saying you don't pay taxes, and that your tax rate is not based (in part) on how much you earn? That's called redistribution of wealth -- all so you can drive on paved highways and bridges, drink clean water, enjoy national treasures like monuments and parks, feel protected by your military and local police, and have a firefighter rescue you from a burning building. It may not be "socialism" but these are all elements of it -- paying it forward for the common good.
