It kind of is, but kind of isn't. Also: Stating the problem in such a crude and incomplete way that isn't true in all cases results in an incremental total loss of freedom. For example: When the police bust down Jeffrey Dahmer's door, is that "rule by force"? Many people would say "yes, it is, and that's a good thing." Those people are equally as wrong as you are, but both of you are stating the problem in a way that makes the others' position appear totally incompatible, so no agreement is possible.
