TL;DR
No. Yes. Yes. Yes.
I believe that no one wants the world to fall into disgrace. Even Christians, who know that the world is in decay after Christ's death and resurrection, do not want a worse world for their children. (Not going into religious issues, just using a practical example that most people understand).
The world I desire does not exist the State. Governance and governments are something else. It is something that many believe to be the same thing, however they are not. Similar to Republic and Democracy. Two things that normally go together but are totally different.
EVERY STATE WILL TEND TO AUTHORITARISM. That's why I don't want any kind of state, other than governance and government, which are entities that are not, a priori, authoritarian. A certain city may have its governance and a government defined and structured based on the definitions of the contracts of that place, but that does not mean that you are obliged to be part of that city. There is the possibility of not accepting the contract and going on with your life without the services and products of that location.
About tax, by definition, it is theft, after all, I never agreed to pay for that. What's the difference between a tax and a thief robbing me of a hundred dollars and giving me back a massage worth fifteen dollars? None!
All fiat currencies are bad, precisely because you need to trust that the entity responsible for it will be reputable. In addition, there is an obligation for you to accept (imposition) to use it as a means of exchange.
