71:5.1 [[Competition]] is [[essential]] to [[social]] [[progress]], but competition, unregulated, breeds [[violence]]. In current [[society]], [[competition]] is slowly displacing [[war]] in that it determines the [[individual]]'s place in [[industry]], as well as decreeing the [[survival]] of the industries themselves. ([http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder Murder] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War war] differ in their [[status]] before the [[mores]], murder having been outlawed since the early days of [[society]], while war has never yet been outlawed by [[mankind]] as a whole.)

71:5.2 The [[ideal]] [[state]] undertakes to [[regulate]] [[social]] [[conduct]] only enough to take [[violence]] out of [[individual]] [[competition]] and to prevent unfairness in [[personal]] [[initiative]]. Here is a great [[problem]] in statehood: How can you guarantee [[peace]] and [[quiet]] in [[industry]], pay the [[taxes]] to support [[state]] [[power]], and at the same time prevent [[taxation]] from [[handicapping]] [[industry]] and keep the state from becoming [[parasitical]] or [[tyrannical]]?

71:5.4 True, [[competition]] in [[industry]] is exceedingly wasteful and highly ineffective, but no attempt to eliminate this [[economic]] lost [[motion]] should be countenanced if such [[adjustments]] entail even the slightest abrogation of any of the basic [[liberties]] of the [[individual]].
