on the basis of understanding that taxation is indeed a crime. What exactly is it that convinces people otherwise? If you were ruled by the mafia, and they then being in charge of the courts insisted their activities were not criminal, would the lack of any recourse to a higher authority necessitate that their criminal activities are therefore licit? I should think not. Just because you grew up indoctrinated with the belief that forcibly seizing the products of others' labour in the name of charity is a legitimate activity does not change that this is not universally regarded to be the case. There is no need to have a separate law against taxation, because taxation is defacto extortion. The only thing that distinguishes one from the other is the opinion of the ruling power.

There needs to be a distinction made between: 1.

Although it's very likely there are jurisidictions that place extortion under under Crimes against property, I'm pretty sure there are a good number of others that place them under Crimes against the person. See Hawaii

Where in the United States is this definition used exactly? U.S. law consists of 51 sets of written codes (the federal governement's and those of the individual states (neglecting for the moment city and county ordinances)), plus the common law. Extortion as defined in one jurisdiction may not be

There appears to be some dispute concerning whether taxation is legitimately a "Similar Crime" or not. I respect that some people do not regard taxation as a crime, but this is clearly not a universally held notion. Some countries such as
Switzerland have even gone so far as to cater to tax evaders

why does this page have the focus on just 2/3 countries here, instead of either not having any specific focuses, OR, some kind of exhaustive list, describing how extortion is used differently in different parts of the world, to portray its use circumstantially / contextually?

it also does not seem to have a basic description of how currency value and how things like profiteering business often try to minimise employees / lower pay when they can, which IN TURN, causes embitterment / RE-action, to the possibly unfair/dis-proportionate cut, etc.

My Ex-Wife texted me threatening that I'd be in contempt of court if I don't, instead of paying child support to the agency, pay her directly. I had my attorney look it over, and he said it was not a crime. Even didn't break the mutual protection order.

I considered it extortion. It is a threat if you threaten legal action. The MPO states no "Harrasment or attempt to annoy other party". What do you think?

Making a threat of violence which refers to a requirement of a payment of money or property to halt future violence is sufficient to commit the offense.
