this is why a lot of big L libertarians advocate a flat sales tax, because you see it

Bad idea. Sales tax is a REGRESSIVE tax. It harms the poor more than it harms the rich. Abolish sales tax. 100% corporate revenue tax.
taxation is theft
theft is a crime
abolish crime
Taxation can only (and it’s still a stretch) be considered theft if you are held against your will, including simply that you were born there and have no means to flee. As this is difficult to distinguish, I’m in favor of abolishing all personal income and sales tax.
Businesses CHOOSE (and go to great lengths) to be incorporated within a legal entity (or layers of legal entities: USA, California, San Francisco, etc) and therefore agree to be charged a cost of doing business in that jurisdiction. That tax is NOT theft.
