If you steal someone's golf money and use it to save 100 lives, is there no morality in that?

That's still immoral.

If you're worried about the public good, there are nonviolent and consensual means of cooperation that I believe would make all of us far more prosperous than today.

You mean like voting for a government that sets a tax policy?
How is tax policy enforced? (Hint: force, not peace)
How do your "nonviolent and consensual means of cooperation" deal with free riders? Hint: force, or the whole thing fails.
