There is nothing preventing the workers to unite and make their cooperatives and whatnot, usually they fail.

Except you know the lack of capital and large-scale poverty of the workers due to the monopolization of land, high rents, low wages, etc all of which are caused by state violence.

Er...high rents and low wages are caused by state violence?

Forgive my skepticism, but I'd be curious to hear the logic behind that assertion.
