It is the primary role of government. Tax people to pay for things that are for the common good... that is redistributing money/wealth.
Building roads and providing for national defense are not wealth redisribution. The former is infrastructure investment for market maximization and the latter a matter of necessity. Trying to claim that everything is wealth redistribution completely misses the point.
