You mean when he said "give unto Caesar that which is Caesar's"? Yes, he advocated paying taxes. What did Caesar use those taxes for? It certainly was not for any welfare program. At no time did Jesus advocate TAKING money from one and giving it to another BY FORCE.
You sound just exactly like Michael Moore.

In the Roman Empire, the first emperor Augustus provided the 'congiaria' or corn dole for citizens who could not afford to buy food. Social welfare was enlarged by the Emperor Trajan.[2] Trajan's program brought acclaim from many, including Pliny the Younger.
