taxes in modern capitalism also function as a means of cooling aggregate spending if there is a threat of inflation, and taxes also can function to affect behavior (taxes on tobacco, for example, could be used to curb smoking--the purpose would not be to create revenue, the goal would be for revenue to be as low as possible! ditto dirty technologies).
of course, this is for a national government that issues its own unbacked currency. local and state governments do have to finance their spending, so there taxes serve as a funding operation.
the real question is not whether there will be or should be taxes under postcapitalist society, but whether there will be or must be MONEY in same. here, the anarchist collectives during the spanish revolution are informative. if i were fluent in spanish and had to write a dissertation today, this would be a top possibility. but see:
