Aren't libertarians all about having almost no taxes?

I don't seem to understand how that point would hurt them much

The conversation goes

  • Taxation is theft because it's involuntary
  • Having to have a job is also involuntary
  • No you can choose not to have a job you'll just be homeless
  • You can choose not to pay taxes you'll just go to prison, because "just don't have income or property" is as impractical as "just live your life from prison"
