So, no. Theft is immoral.
No, what's immoral is denying education and healthcare to those who can not afford it. Can't afford to send your kids to school? That's ok then, no education for them. Got cancer, but can't afford the treatment? Have a nice death.

A libertarian would let an orphan starve and die unless someone agreed to take them in. It's disgusting in my opinion.
