Vacuous and self satisfied appeals to intelligent and nuanced analysis of this kind is something I wish I'd see less of in these discussions. Few libertarians are anarcho-capitalists; they want a state and thus have to accept some taxes. They just want them to be very low and, usually, to be able to enjoy other things that are perfectly reasonable to want to enjoy (pot/cheap foreign labour/excellent foreign labour/raw milk cheeses FDA does not permit/exotic medical treatments). Imagine a thousand square kilometres of California with a laissez faire system akin to that of Dubai. Hackers who want more money (or access to foreign talent, cheap foreign labour etc.) would move there. They would make it apparent that most of the taxes they used to pay, while perhaps used for good in a general utilitarian sense (a point I only concede for the sake of brevity), was not used for their good. Does wanting to move to such a place show a lack of nuance or intelligence on their part?
