Fundamentally, there are only two ways of coordinating the economic activities of millions. One is central direction involving the use of coercion – the technique of the army and of the modern totalitarian state. The other is voluntary cooperation of individuals – the technique of the marketplace.

DuhFuqh?

Totalitarians corrupt and infiltrate the military to use them to oust their former masters in coups...or they are revolutionary bandits and slaughter their way to power...the military per se is not evil, it is used by evil men.  Is your car evil when you plow it into a crowd?
