The Non-Aggression Principle has its limits, mainly that we humans are by nature self-centered and tend to short-term, me-focused thinking; we therefore sometimes need to be compelled to do things we don't want to do, sometimes for our own good and sometimes for the good of the society that provides us with the opportunities to do what we do want to do. By analogy, parents know better than young kids what's best for them and for the family; likewise, for some things (I stress some), individuals probably aren't the best judges of what's best for us personally, let alone for the society as a whole that provides the framework for our individual choices.
