«Der Staat ist eine Institution, die von Banden geführt wird, die aus Mördern, Plünderern und Dieben besteht, umgeben von willfährigen Handlangern, Propagandisten, Speichelleckern, Gaunern, Lügnern, Clowns, Scharlatanen, Blendern und nützlichen Idioten - eine Institution, die alles verdreckt und verdunkelt, was sie berührt.» (– Prof. Hans-Hermann Hoppe).
