I don't think violence breeds good behavior, it breeds resentment.

If you have badly behaved children, look in the mirror.
I completely agree with you. I was never spanked or hit growing up and I can't thank my parents enough.
I believe there are so many other, more effective ways to communicate and get your children to behave other then merely hitting them. To me, it's taking the easy way out to execute that kind of punishment.
Kids aren't born little brats, they learn to be. If you correct the bad attitude early- the right way- there's less of a chance they'll continue that behavior.
