Taxation is institutionalized theft. The state enforces compliance through coercion, disguising it as civic duty while funding its expansive control.

Propaganda sustains the state. By rebranding coercion as public service, it masks exploitation under narratives of patriotism and necessity.

War isn’t a failure of the state, it’s a tool. Expansion through violence consolidates power, proving peace undermines its raison d’être.

Coercion distorts markets, creating shortages and crises that justify further intervention.
