What is "legal?" It is an abstract concept. All it is is people using force.

With a state, it is possible to have the right to defend your property. Without a state, you definitely have that right. That means having a state that doesn't honor the right to protect property is inferior, but having a state that does is equal.

How does a state honor teh right to property if to survive a state needs taxation?

It's a trade-off.  The State takes some and gives more back (ideally).

It's good to see someone with some true anti-Statist beliefs though.
