"There is something startlingly obvious about the non-aggression principle . . . we are taught as children not to hit other children and not to take what belongs to them . . . we do not perhaps normally think of ourselves as something that can be owned but the libertarian self-ownership claim is, at the very least, a rejection of the idea that anyone else owns us."
- Gerard Casey
I think it presents more of an argument against the concept of the state that power-seekers consistently gravitate toward government positions and encourage the abandonment of the non-aggression principle, embracing violence as a method to rule over people rather than to represent their interests or promote any social benefits. I believe it is long overdue for the populations to strike down any method of government which is not completely voluntary and withdraw consent to be governed.
