[ QUOTE ]
I think some people want a state and some people dont. The ones who dont are coerced by the ones who do.

So when you are talking about needs, in which group do you place yourself?

The coerced I guess. I'd like to live in a world without violence (threatened or otherwise) but am not convinced that the problems I alluded to would be solved very well without a government. Consequently, I'm not going to support abandoning the devil I know until I learn more specifics about the devil I dont.
I dont consider myself advocating either position - I have what I consider to be legitimate questions for advocates of both systems. Inevitably, when you ask a statist a question as to why we need a state they reply with how bad it would be if there was nobody in charge. When you ask an anarchist a question about how anarchy would work, they reply with how bad things are under the state.
