The bad moral value of force

Milton Friedman said: “The bad moral value of force triumphs over good intentions.”

Is it morally right for the state to take from people that which they do not wish to give? Would the political left admit they try to fight evil with evil?

The left political position is anti war and anti violence.
@Roundandroundwego And anti capitalist which disqualifies Friedman by default.

@Roundandroundwego How so? Why are so many on the left supporting war in Ukraine? Why aren't they telling their leaders to not escalate?

What do you consider violence?

WRONG.

The LEFT WING Adolf Biden regime has brought WAR to the world and has brought this planet closer than ever before to WWIII.
As far as anti violence?
This is YOUR goose stepping left wing side of the aisle.

@Reason10 Oh and vandalism is not violence.

But we know right wingers love corporate power.
