Hans-Hermann Hoppe

• Don't put your trust in democracy, but neither should you trust in a dictatorship. Rather, put your hope into radical political decentralization.
• Crises, as everyone vaguely familiar with history would know, are typically used & often purposefully fabricated by states in order to further increase their own power.
• There can be no socialism without a state & as long as there is a state there is socialism. The state, then, is the very institution that puts socialism into action & as socialism rests on aggressive violence directed against innocent victims, aggressive violence is the nature of nay state.
