If you don’t have taxes of some sort, you do not have a government.

Or rather, you don’t till someone invades and forces one on you.

Nobody said no taxes of any sort. As I read it, slowhandluke put for that the income tax was evil and should not be in existence.

That means something different than "no taxes of [any] sort". For example, there is the founders idea of an excise. That is not an income tax yet it could fund our government. There is an excise NRST that has been thoroughly studied and would work. It's only political questions that must be satisfied.
