“The repeal of laws as a means to roll back the state is not unjustified. For example, there is no coercion against those who would pick our pockets for “free” healthcare or education, rather it is more so an act of self-defense. As such, we are free to use the state’s political apparatus to further a platform against aggression, democracy, and egalitarianism, while supporting property rights.”
― Daniel Alexander Brackins, Private Property, Law, and the State

“Property rights are the foundation necessary to explain the role of non-aggression. In other words, the non-aggression principle is simply another of way of saying individuals have a right against aggression from others as a result of property. Non-aggression alone does not tell us what property rights people have, or why they have these rights to begin with.”
― Daniel Alexander Brackins, Private Property, Law, and the State

“The law itself was originally created in order to protect property. However, the law has been falsely attributed to being the reason property exists in the first place. At least, this is what the state would have us believe. The law does not create property rights because these already existed before the law was created. It is this false attribution that allows the state apparatus to conduct its mission of expropriation.”
― Daniel Alexander Brackins, Private Property, Law, and the State

“The only way for the state to finance its operations is through the forcible expropriation of productive wealth from its citizens.”
