Define "state." Are you implying that it requires corruption?

Institution that seizes the monopoly of violence

That's just organization crime imbedded into a social service. Corruption is never needed but many social services have their place.

Example:

When you are not at home to protect your wife and daughter you might ask a trusted neighbor to keep watch. If they are busy then you might have to pay for protection. If enough people have issues then the community might have to hire someone.

The problem is how do we stop the corruption being imbedded before it becomes your definition of "state?"

Grosso modo: the free market prevents it, the company would lose financing, clients and prestige, and would therefore disappear… on the other hand: ANCAP could end up in statism, there is always the possibility
