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?

[/ QUOTE ]
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.

Can we recognize coercing people into things they do not want as a problem?

You just admitted that, as being one of the coerced, you recognize that the state in fact does not care about your needs at all.

In coercing, it provides for the needs of some at the expense of others.

As the one being coerced, and it thus having nothing to do with your needs and your problems, I then don't see how you then not dare stand up to this evil.

You say you want to live in a world without violence but you give moral support to the state who coerces you for the benefit of others. Something is wrong there.
