Are *YOU* a Statist?

WHY?

Quote:
A Statist is one who advocates Statism.
Quote:
Statism (or etatism) is a scholarly term in political philosophy either emphasising the role of the state in analysing political change; or, in describing political movements which support the use of the state to achieve goals.
Quote:
In the social sciences, a state is a compulsory political organization with a centralized government that maintains a monopoly of the legitimate use of force within a certain territory.

No. I am not a fan of socialism. Although I reference the exteme of socialism by outlining the NAZI party in those lines. National Socialists Workers Party.

But even cavemen were statists. I think it's in our DNA.
