Hans-Hermann Hoppe Quotes:

Ocupation: Economist

Life: b. September 2, 1949

Birthday: September 2

If an agency is the ultimate judge in every case of conflict, then it is also judge in all conflicts involving itself. Consequently, instead of merely preventing and resolving conflict, a monopolist of ultimate decision making will also cause and provoke conflict in order to settle it to his own advantage. That is, if one can only appeal to the state for justice, justice will be perverted in the favor of the state, constitutions and supreme courts notwithstanding.

- Hans-Hermann Hoppe
