Unless you're a sheep farmer or something (in which case, you still rely on the state for security) you need an enormous number of state services to run even a very simple business, but on a more basic level, property rights are defined and guaranteed by the state, currency is produced and given value by the state, employment relations and legal structures also, and so on.
