You are correct in that historically nobody has done wage labor if they had another option. However, in the present it seems as though many choose wage labor with other options. If a stateless society emerges in the future, it seems likely it will involve some wage labor.
Can you clarify your statement that markets never start outside the state, and that they stop operating on pure calculating competition. For example, over 75% of international trade use arbitrage agreements. They are effectively operating outside the state, and they seem to be quite concerned with profit maximizing.
