by | Oct 23, 2025

In war, State power is pushed to its ultimate, and, under the slogans of “defense” and “emergency,” it can impose a tyranny upon the public such as might be openly resisted in time of peace. War thus provides many benefits to a State, and indeed every modern war has brought to the warring peoples a permanent legacy of increased State burdens upon society.

– Murray N. Rothbard, Egalitarianism as a Revolt Against Nature, pp. 80–81
