The state has no specific purpose, and the government does not offer it one
The state has no specific purpose—and the government does not offer it one. It is easy to confuse the decisions of the government with setting the purpose of the state. The government, because it controls the state, may decide to set any purpose for the state’s processing, that is, for the information processing carried out by it (after all, this is the case for any organisation—except the state, see §02.00.09). This does not, however, make these purposes the purpose of the state. The state preceded the government and itself has no purpose—or, at least, not a specific one. In fact, the government, as a Being, has needs and it is these needs that it serves through the information processing made possible to it through control of the state.
