1
00:00:01,100 --> 00:00:05,100
In 1919 at the end of what was 
then the most murderous war and 

2
00:00:05,100 --> 00:00:08,900
human history, the German social
scientist, mocks Weber issued an

3
00:00:08,900 --> 00:00:14,100
article in which he defined the 
state as the entity that 

4
00:00:14,100 --> 00:00:18,600
successfully claims a monopoly 
on the legitimate, use of 

5
00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:21,200
violence in the enforcement of 
its order. 

6
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:26,900
That is only the state can put 
you in prison, only the state 

7
00:00:26,900 --> 00:00:29,000
can kill you for violating its 
laws. 

8
00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:35,600
Only the state can go to war 
with other states Larkin. 

9
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:39,100
What is government? 
And why are you anti-government 

10
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:44,500
government is the notion that 
certain political rituals, 

11
00:00:44,500 --> 00:00:47,100
whether it's elections are 
appointments or whatever else 

12
00:00:47,300 --> 00:00:51,600
can actually dystopia upon a 
select group of human beings, 

13
00:00:51,700 --> 00:00:55,300
the Right to rule. 
It's not just about the ability 

14
00:00:55,300 --> 00:00:57,500
to control. 
Lots of people, you know, if 

15
00:00:57,500 --> 00:01:00,000
they have a gun, might have the 
ability to control their 

16
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,100
neighbor by force. 
That doesn't make them 

17
00:01:02,100 --> 00:01:06,100
government government is the 
exercise of authority, meaning 

18
00:01:06,100 --> 00:01:10,900
the right to rule which never 
actually exists. 

19
00:01:10,900 --> 00:01:14,000
The right is imagined. 
The thugs are real. 

20
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,900
The guns are real. 
The violence is very real, all 

21
00:01:16,900 --> 00:01:21,400
too real, but the right to do it
the authority to do, it is 

22
00:01:21,500 --> 00:01:25,400
always July. 
So the problem is not the thing 

23
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:29,000
over there called government. 
It is the fact that people view 

24
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:33,000
it as government as a thing that
actually has the right to 

25
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:35,200
coercively control us. 
And that's why I talked about 

26
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:37,700
the fact that those people in 
there, guns are not actually the

27
00:01:37,700 --> 00:01:42,200
problem, the belief system, and 
people imagining that there is 

28
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:46,400
such thing as a legitimate, you 
know, rightful ruling class. 

29
00:01:46,500 --> 00:01:50,100
That is the problem, Mark. 
What is government? 

30
00:01:50,100 --> 00:01:54,200
And why do you not support? 
The legitimacy of government, or

31
00:01:54,200 --> 00:02:00,700
a state government is a false 
and illusory, religious belief. 

32
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:04,300
I would go even further. 
And say that government is a 

33
00:02:04,300 --> 00:02:07,500
cult. 
It is a cult belief system 

34
00:02:07,500 --> 00:02:11,200
because the definition of a cult
is a religious belief that is 

35
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:15,900
actually harmful to members that
are not is its Believers or 

36
00:02:15,900 --> 00:02:19,200
adherence. 
And the basic belief structure 

37
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:21,900
of those who believe in 
government is that there is 

38
00:02:21,900 --> 00:02:24,000
such. 
Such a thing called Authority 

39
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:28,500
that is vested in man. 
And that is entirely rooted in 

40
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:31,700
the concept of violence, which 
is the initiation of harmful 

41
00:02:31,700 --> 00:02:34,600
Behavior toward other beings 
that are exercising their rights

42
00:02:34,900 --> 00:02:39,600
because of the commands or 
demands of a ruling class, that 

43
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:43,400
call themselves, the legislators
or lawmakers that want to 

44
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:46,400
impose, their will violently 
upon other beings. 

45
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:48,600
Coercively. 
Violently upon other beings and 

46
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:50,300
therefore, restrain their 
rights. 

47
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:53,600
That's what government is. 
Me and ultimately, if you really

48
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:55,700
take what I just said there and 
condense it down. 

49
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:59,700
It comes down to three. 
Simple words, government is 

50
00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:04,000
slavery. 
The realm of biology and it is 

51
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,200
also completely invalid in the 
realm of Ethics. 

52
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:08,200
Is that the argument for 
statelessness, right? 

53
00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:10,700
That if you say, well, there are
some human beings who have the 

54
00:03:10,700 --> 00:03:13,100
right and the obligation to 
initiate the use of force 

55
00:03:13,100 --> 00:03:15,500
against others, which is the 
government and its police, and 

56
00:03:15,500 --> 00:03:19,300
its military and so on. 
Whereas other people have no 

57
00:03:19,300 --> 00:03:22,600
possible Right to initiate, the 
use of force against others 

58
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,000
because they can't go around 
killing and raping and stealing 

59
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,700
and motoring. 
And so on, then you have 

60
00:03:27,700 --> 00:03:31,300
created. 
A category called Humanity which

61
00:03:31,300 --> 00:03:36,600
has opposite moral requirements 
or demands and that is invalid 

62
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:38,500
logically. 
So there would be an argument to

63
00:03:38,500 --> 00:03:42,200
say that, you know free speech 
and statelessness are certainly 

64
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:45,700
the morally and logically 
consistent ideals for Humanity. 

65
00:03:45,900 --> 00:03:49,000
And anybody who creates 
artificial oppositional 

66
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:53,100
categories, under the same 
conceptual umbrella is making a 

67
00:03:53,100 --> 00:03:58,300
terrible terrible mistake. 
What is the state and what is 

68
00:03:58,300 --> 00:04:01,900
it? 
Not the state is a ruling class 

69
00:04:01,900 --> 00:04:06,000
that claims to have the Monopoly
on violence, the right to do to 

70
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,700
us. 
What we would not be allowed to 

71
00:04:08,700 --> 00:04:12,500
do to each other. 
So this this state is is 

72
00:04:12,500 --> 00:04:17,000
necessarily an institution that 
can that can impose violence 

73
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:18,600
against you? 
Take your property. 

74
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:21,399
Take your children. 
Take your life. 

75
00:04:21,399 --> 00:04:24,700
Draft. 
You tax, you regulate you 

76
00:04:24,700 --> 00:04:27,400
threaten you with violence. 
So if you, if you don't comply, 

77
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:29,200
we can't do that with each 
other. 

78
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:32,000
In fact, if I came up to you and
did anything that state does to 

79
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:33,500
every day. 
I would get arrested. 

80
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:38,000
So that's what the state is. 
It is, it is not. 

81
00:04:39,100 --> 00:04:40,800
An institution that enforces 
rules. 

82
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:42,900
Okay. 
We're surrounded by institutions

83
00:04:42,900 --> 00:04:45,200
that have rules. 
I just got back from Cancun 

84
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,100
where I went to a private 
Resort, the rules, in those 

85
00:04:48,100 --> 00:04:50,900
private Resort where ridiculous.
I mean, just over the top, 

86
00:04:50,900 --> 00:04:53,300
right? 
So, like I tried to go to dinner

87
00:04:54,300 --> 00:04:57,400
that he can't believe it, but 
they rejected me on grounds of 

88
00:04:57,900 --> 00:05:00,500
didn't compose a dress code. 
Keep in mind. 

89
00:05:00,500 --> 00:05:06,100
I had a tie on and a jacket at 
and and, you know, everything 

90
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:09,300
the difference was that I was 
wearing loafers and It's down to

91
00:05:09,300 --> 00:05:11,800
my knees. 
Well, they did not allow shorts 

92
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:16,000
and the restaurants, otherwise 
that, so they refused entry for 

93
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:18,000
me. 
I couldn't believe it in a 

94
00:05:18,008 --> 00:05:21,000
restaurant and a resort where I 
had paid to be. 

95
00:05:21,700 --> 00:05:27,200
So I had to go back to my room 
and put on pants, you know, and 

96
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,700
then they, let me write in, but 
you see those? 

97
00:05:30,700 --> 00:05:36,900
That was a rule, but I had 
agreed to comply with that rule 

98
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:42,900
by virtue of Of being in that 
Resort and and they let me into 

99
00:05:42,900 --> 00:05:44,400
the resort because I paid to be 
there. 

100
00:05:44,500 --> 00:05:48,000
So it's still all voluntary 
rules are inevitable and all of 

101
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:51,200
society. 
Now why would happen if I said 

102
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:52,000
no? 
Damn it? 

103
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:58,100
I want a table. 
Well, a bodyguard would have 

104
00:05:58,100 --> 00:06:01,400
come in and said, I'm sorry. 
So you can't do this and 

105
00:06:01,500 --> 00:06:03,900
shuffled me to my room and if I 
complain, whether said I'm 

106
00:06:03,900 --> 00:06:06,200
sorry, would have to leave the 
hotel, so they kick me out, but 

107
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,000
they're not actually killing me,
right? 

108
00:06:08,100 --> 00:06:09,100
They're kicking me out of the 
hotel. 

109
00:06:09,100 --> 00:06:11,800
They're ending their contractual
exchange with me because I 

110
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:13,700
stopped complying with the 
contract. 

111
00:06:14,700 --> 00:06:16,800
That is not the way the state 
deals with us. 

112
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:21,200
So private rules are just part 
of life and that is not the same

113
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:23,500
thing as the state. 
This Is very difficult for 

114
00:06:23,500 --> 00:06:28,700
people to understand, actually, 
but when you when you go to a, 

115
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:34,300
you know, the gym and they say 
there's there's you have to 

116
00:06:34,300 --> 00:06:38,600
where you can't scream while you
lift up, don't barbells and you 

117
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:42,400
continue to do it, then they're 
going to end your gym membership

118
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,600
and kick you out, right? 
But that's not, that's not the 

119
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:46,700
same thing as coercion. 
That's the end of a contractual 

120
00:06:46,700 --> 00:06:48,400
relationship. 
But here's the thing. 

121
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:51,200
The state never makes a contract
with us, right? 

122
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:54,300
So, so they can, Talk about 
social contracts and that kind 

123
00:06:54,300 --> 00:06:56,100
of nonsense. 
But but none of it's actually 

124
00:06:56,100 --> 00:06:58,400
true. 
It's actually a relationship 

125
00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:00,800
rooted in violence rather than 
Choice. 

126
00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:06,600
Anyways, the government is the 
subset of a society, which 

127
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:10,500
claims to have a legitimate 
Monopoly on the use of force a 

128
00:07:10,508 --> 00:07:13,100
legitimate Monopoly on the right
to make fundamental rules. 

129
00:07:13,300 --> 00:07:18,200
And also has sufficient physical
power to actually back up that 

130
00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:20,200
Monopoly, right? 
So that's why I look like a 

131
00:07:20,207 --> 00:07:22,400
failed State, like we might have
had in Somalia. 

132
00:07:22,500 --> 00:07:24,800
You in the late 80s, would be 
something where there might be a

133
00:07:24,808 --> 00:07:26,400
group that claims to have 
Monopoly, but they're not 

134
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:28,400
actually able to maintain it. 
So the government sort of 

135
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:31,100
failed, in that sense. 
So, government is a group of 

136
00:07:31,100 --> 00:07:35,400
people subset that has Monopoly 
of force and makes rules and him

137
00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:37,900
and actually imposes. 
Those rules upon others. 

138
00:07:38,300 --> 00:07:40,700
That's not a perfect definition 
because, of course, lots of 

139
00:07:40,700 --> 00:07:43,600
rules, Come about through. 
Nongovernmental means there's 

140
00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:46,700
all sorts of private governance,
even under states, where there 

141
00:07:46,700 --> 00:07:49,800
are governments, but the states 
claim to have this fundamental 

142
00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:52,200
law making power and they have 
the ability to back it up. 

143
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:57,300
It's not the, it's not the 
government's, not the name. 

144
00:07:57,300 --> 00:07:59,100
We give to the things that we do
together. 

145
00:07:59,100 --> 00:08:00,300
We do all sorts of things 
together. 

146
00:08:00,300 --> 00:08:02,300
Together without government, 
government is the name that we 

147
00:08:02,300 --> 00:08:05,600
give to the people with the 
guns, whether that's good or 

148
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:07,100
bad. 
Is an open question, but that's 

149
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:09,500
fundamentally. 
What a government is sure. 

150
00:08:09,500 --> 00:08:11,000
Yeah. 
That's what makes it a unique 

151
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:13,200
institution. 
You talk about two things in 

152
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,900
this book, Authority and 
legitimacy. 

153
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,900
What are of what is Authority 
and legitimacy? 

154
00:08:19,900 --> 00:08:22,600
Good, it's worth noting for 
people who I say, I say this in 

155
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:23,900
that book. 
I say to know when all else 

156
00:08:23,900 --> 00:08:27,500
fails book the terms, Authority 
and legitimacy are used quite 

157
00:08:27,500 --> 00:08:29,400
frequently by political 
philosophers, but they're not 

158
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:33,500
perfectly standardized. 
So I use a particular way, but 

159
00:08:33,500 --> 00:08:36,900
everyone agrees upon is that 
government's claim to have two 

160
00:08:36,900 --> 00:08:39,500
special moral powers or moral 
properties. 

161
00:08:39,799 --> 00:08:43,100
So one is it, government's claim
that they have the ability in 

162
00:08:43,100 --> 00:08:45,800
the permission to create rules 
and enforce? 

163
00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:49,300
Those rules with violence call. 
I use the word legitimacy to 

164
00:08:49,300 --> 00:08:51,100
refer. 
That legitimacy means the 

165
00:08:51,100 --> 00:08:53,200
permissibility of using violence
to do something. 

166
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:55,000
And we're talking about 
government legitimacy, the 

167
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:57,700
permissibility of using violence
and other kinds of aggressive 

168
00:08:57,700 --> 00:09:01,400
course, of means to force 
compliance with rules that you 

169
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:03,600
make. 
So, that's legitimacy of 

170
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:07,500
authority, is supposed to refer 
to the idea of when they issue a

171
00:09:07,500 --> 00:09:10,800
command or an edict, a law or 
regulation. 

172
00:09:11,100 --> 00:09:14,300
You have an obligation in virtue
of them, issuing the command to 

173
00:09:14,300 --> 00:09:16,600
follow it. 
So, it's very important that 

174
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:18,400
when you ask, is there a duty to
obey the law? 

175
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:19,600
You're asking is there 
Authority. 

176
00:09:19,700 --> 00:09:20,800
Preity. 
Does that government have 

177
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:23,800
authority over you? 
And it's important to note that 

178
00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:26,400
you could have an obligation to 
obey the law but not because it 

179
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:29,000
is the law and that in which 
case, it's not Authority. 

180
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:32,700
So, if I, if I say right now, i 
j Brennan hereby declare myself 

181
00:09:32,700 --> 00:09:35,200
to be the one and true emperor 
of the planet Earth. 

182
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:39,300
And I Now command, all of you, 
all of you watching, never to 

183
00:09:39,300 --> 00:09:41,400
commit murder. 
Well, you actually have an 

184
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:44,400
obligation to do the thing that 
I said, avoid committing murder,

185
00:09:44,500 --> 00:09:47,200
but you don't have that 
obligation because I said, so 

186
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,600
you don't owe it to me or, oh, 
it's other. 

187
00:09:49,700 --> 00:09:53,400
To listen to me per se. 
My command is sort of morally 

188
00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:56,100
inert. 
So in contrast, people who 

189
00:09:56,100 --> 00:09:58,900
believe in the idea of an 
obligation to obey the law per 

190
00:09:58,900 --> 00:10:03,000
se think that when certain 
government agents are actors or 

191
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:06,800
bodies issue commands or laws, 
you have to obey that law 

192
00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:11,200
because they said, so they cause
you to have an obligation. 

193
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:13,300
They might add an additional 
source of out like if the 

194
00:10:13,308 --> 00:10:15,400
government commands you not to 
murder and they think you had a 

195
00:10:15,408 --> 00:10:17,400
pre-existing obligation, not to 
murder plus. 

196
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:19,500
Now you have an obligation to 
murder because the government 

197
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:20,800
Ed. 
So you have two different 

198
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:23,100
grounds for it, or it might be 
in some cases. 

199
00:10:23,100 --> 00:10:25,200
You didn't have any obligation 
at all until you were so 

200
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:29,100
commanded, you know, the 
military officer had no 

201
00:10:29,100 --> 00:10:31,800
obligation to attack another 
country until he was told to do.

202
00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:35,800
So by his Superior. 
I think you are privatizing. 

203
00:10:37,300 --> 00:10:44,100
Something that is what 
essentially sets a nation-state 

204
00:10:44,100 --> 00:10:51,600
apart which is the Monopoly on 
on violence and to To to set 

205
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:54,700
those kinds of precedents. 
I think will lead us over the 

206
00:10:54,700 --> 00:10:59,800
long term into the some some 
troubled water. 

207
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:05,700
Now, what is government? 
So there's a very famous 

208
00:11:05,900 --> 00:11:08,200
definition of government due to 
Max Weber. 

209
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:10,100
Max. 
Weber is basically the founder 

210
00:11:10,100 --> 00:11:15,600
of Sociology and he defined 
government as defined the state 

211
00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:20,500
as quote, a human community that
successfully claims the Monopoly

212
00:11:20,500 --> 00:11:24,100
of the legitimate use of 
physical Force within a given 

213
00:11:24,100 --> 00:11:27,300
territory. 
Now as a side, terminological 

214
00:11:27,300 --> 00:11:30,000
note people in political 
philosophy, use the word state 

215
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:33,100
interchangeably with Mint in the
United States. 

216
00:11:33,100 --> 00:11:34,700
People. 
Sometimes use the word state to 

217
00:11:34,700 --> 00:11:37,100
refer to, you know, like the 
state of Colorado. 

218
00:11:37,500 --> 00:11:40,000
But in political philosophy, 
when we say that, we mean the 

219
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:42,000
government in general. 
Okay. 

220
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,900
Now there might be some problems
with Vapors definition. 

221
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:49,200
You might notice that there are 
plenty of legitimate use of 

222
00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:51,500
physical force, that don't 
involve the government. 

223
00:11:51,500 --> 00:11:54,800
So if somebody attacks you and 
you physically defend yourself, 

224
00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:57,000
that's a legitimate use of 
physical Force. 

225
00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:01,000
Now, what Faber would probably 
say is, yeah, but that's it. 

226
00:12:01,100 --> 00:12:04,600
Only, it's only considered 
legitimate because the state 

227
00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:08,300
authorizes it because you're 
legally authorized to defend 

228
00:12:08,300 --> 00:12:12,100
yourself in such a situation. 
But, you know, that's a little 

229
00:12:12,100 --> 00:12:14,600
bit questionable because most 
people think it's legitimate. 

230
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:18,800
Even if the government hadn't, 
authorized it, however, be that 

231
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:21,600
as it may, there are two key 
attributes of the state. 

232
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:24,100
That favorite talks about that 
are important, and that are 

233
00:12:24,100 --> 00:12:28,300
widely accepted there that the 
state is monopolistic and that 

234
00:12:28,300 --> 00:12:31,000
it's coercive. 
So it's widely agreed. 

235
00:12:31,500 --> 00:12:34,000
Whether or not you accept 
exactly, Vapors definition. 

236
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:37,500
It's widely agreed. 
That the government is coercive.

237
00:12:37,500 --> 00:12:40,300
In other words. 
It IT issues commands to people 

238
00:12:40,300 --> 00:12:44,000
and it forces them to obey them.
It doesn't simply ask you to 

239
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:45,800
obey. 
Its directives. 

240
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:50,900
There's a threat that some armed
officers will come and do 

241
00:12:50,900 --> 00:12:52,800
something to you. 
If you don't obey their 

242
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,900
commands, it's also widely 
agreed that the state is 

243
00:12:55,900 --> 00:12:58,400
monopolistic. 
In other words. 

244
00:12:59,100 --> 00:13:01,000
It's a kind of organization that
does not allow. 

245
00:13:01,100 --> 00:13:04,100
Now competitors. 
So if you try to set up a 

246
00:13:04,100 --> 00:13:07,400
competing organization that does
the same things that the 

247
00:13:07,408 --> 00:13:11,700
government does, the government 
will send on demand to forcibly 

248
00:13:11,700 --> 00:13:14,000
shut you down. 
If you try to set up your own 

249
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:16,700
police force, or your own court 
system where you try to make 

250
00:13:16,700 --> 00:13:20,800
your own laws, anyone, if anyone
of it other than the government 

251
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:23,700
does that, then the government 
will forcibly shut them down. 

252
00:13:23,700 --> 00:13:27,000
So, that's the Monopoly aspect 
mode. 

253
00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:33,100
When we are truly free. 
Doesn't mean there won't be any 

254
00:13:33,100 --> 00:13:35,100
evil in the world. 
In fact, a stateless society is 

255
00:13:35,100 --> 00:13:36,900
a recognition of the fact that 
evil exists. 

256
00:13:36,900 --> 00:13:40,300
And the first place that 
evildoers go is to the state to 

257
00:13:40,308 --> 00:13:41,800
gain control over the state, 
right? 

258
00:13:41,900 --> 00:13:44,000
If human beings are all good. 
We don't need to state if human 

259
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:45,900
beings are all evil. 
We can't afford the state if 

260
00:13:46,100 --> 00:13:50,200
human beings are. 
Mostly evil and only somewhat 

261
00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:52,000
good. 
Then the mostly evil people vote

262
00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:58,300
for Democratic policies that 
overwhelm and subjugate the good

263
00:13:58,300 --> 00:14:00,300
people. 
If people are mostly good and 

264
00:14:00,300 --> 00:14:04,000
only somewhat evil, which is my 
belief, then the good people 

265
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:06,700
become the tax livestock 
controlled by the evil people 

266
00:14:06,700 --> 00:14:08,800
who swarmed to the state to get 
control over the good. 

267
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:12,100
There is no scenario. 
Of any add mixture of Good and 

268
00:14:12,100 --> 00:14:14,200
Evil which justifies the 
existence of the state. 

269
00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:19,300
The state is a giant magnet. 
Four monsters in human form.
