To prevent all that from happening, we have welfare where the "strong" take care of the "weak" and try help them get stronger.

That is only just if it is voluntary. When the weak outnumber the strong and use that to take more and more, it is not only tyranny but also destructive. Like any parasite that takes too much it eventually kills the host.

Again, that is why we need the state to control it.
