Quote by Hans-Hermann Hoppe on State, Contract, and Violence

„No, the state is anything but the result of a contract! No one with even just an ounce of common sense would agree to such a contract. I have a lot of contracts in my files, but nowhere is there one like this. The state is the result of aggressive force and subjugation. It has evolved without contractual foundation, just like a gang of protection racketeers. And concerning the struggle of all against all: that is a myth.“

"The State, both in its genesis and by its primary intention, is purely anti-social. It is not based on the idea of natural rights, but on the idea that the individual has no rights except those that the State may provisionally grant him. It has always made justice costly and difficult of access, and has invariably held itself above justice and common morality whenever it could advantage itself by so doing." Albert Jay Nock

The State is in no sense required by the nature of man; quite the contrary." Murray Rothbard

And this rule has no other ultimate purpose than the economic exploitation of the defeated by the victors." Franz Oppenheimer
