I'm just trying to point out that AC society would require the same coercive acceptance of property rights that statism does.

How is this "coercion" you point in AC anything close to the same as the coercion of the current US state? Come on no way are they the same.

Of course it is not comparable. We are discussing rights here, how many of the decisions made i.e. during Bush was based on prioritizing rights? Most seems to be based on the principle of limiting freedom for no other good reason than limiting that citizens locally and abroad conduct actions that he/his followers don't like due to lack of tolerance. He also thinks that 10 Iraqi/Afghani lifes is worth saving one American life, what kind of principle is that? He forces people to pay tax to an operation with an inherent goal to discriminate based on nationality. A conscious population is needed in any sort of society, otherwise the results become what we see today.
