So youre deferring to a state? The state must exist? OK, but then youre basically saying the same thing we are saying.
Once you have a state structure in place, there is an ongoing cost to guaranteeing you exclusive use of your land. Who will pay this cost? You must. You'd have to if the state didnt exist, so you must continue to do so when the state exists. Ultimately the state provides you the might for the might makes right system that underpins everything and you can't have it for free.
