If people were to discard their romantic attachment to the state, would that lead to a competitive market in government, or would it lead to a reversion to the natural state?

My opinion is that it would lead to reversion to the natural state. You'd end up with multiple competing "limited access orders". Without a single overarching authority to enforce a monopoly on the use of force, it would inevitably result in a shooting competition.
