“There can happen no breach of covenant on the part of the sovereign; and consequently none of his subjects, by any pretence of forfeiture, can be freed from his subjection.”
-Hobbes
some dude paraphrasing Hobbes:
"Whatever the state does is just by definition. All of society is a direct creation of the state, and a reflection of the will of the ruler."
"The concept of just use of force is meaningless or cannot be known. Just use of force is whatever force is authorized."
"You conceded your rights to the government, in return for your life."
