"How does taxation give wealth and services to everyone? If that were true, then there would be zero homeless people in any geographical area that gets taxed."

That's a False Dilemma fallacy. There are plenty of points where taxes are used to help people but the problems are too large, or where taxes are simply used ineffectively. It does not prove that taxes can't be used to improve society, and in fact in general societies with higher taxation do tend to have fewer social problems.
