When individuals came together to form a society they gave up a little bit of their freedom to the state which would 
1. Govern their collective value in the form of money against counterfeit and debasement and 
2. Defend and enforce an individuals property rights against other states and internal robbery via police and army. 

It was the individuals rights that are meant to be defended by the state. Now it’s reversed and the state enforces its mandates on the individual through violence.
