The existence of the state makes it necessary for it to have the monopoly of the application of force

Note that like most other points made in discussions involving "rights," this is an opinion, presented as if it were an objective fact.

Another opinion is that you have only the rights that you can defend. That one, at least, has some empirical proof behind it.

Why do you pay your taxes? Is it altruism on your part, or fear of retaliation if you don´t? What happens if you were more powerful than the IRS (or whatever force the IRS might send your way to coerce you into paying your debts)? How can a state impose a law on criminals if criminals are stronger than itself? See mexico for example, where drug cartels are arguably stronger than the state in certain parts they control. Or brasilian favelas. This part is not an opinion my friend. Also I don´t claim to have invented this concept https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monopoly_on_violence
