Rothbard explains it all

"I define anarchist society as one where there is no legal possibility for coercive aggression against the person or property of any individual. Anarchists oppose the State because it has its very being in such aggression, namely, the expropriation of private property through taxation, the coercive exclusion of other providers of defense service from its territory, and all of the other depredations and coercions that are built upon these twin foci of invasions of individual rights." -Murray Rothbard in Society and State

  4. Just followed the blog. I couldn't agree more with those statements. Honestly, people hear "anarchy" and devolution and chaos fly into the mind. The truth is, anarchy is neither chaos nor disorder. The only reason anarchy has such connotation is because of an indoctrinated public that doesn't fully understand how not only survival is possible under the idea of anarchy, but also how we have the means to thrive should we choose to remain civilized.
