My Opinion

My belief in human nature is very straight forward. I say that from birth everyone has a god-given right to life, liberty, health, and possessions. I say this now and disagree with Hobbes'  belief on human nature because of the time we live in, it's unnecessary to resort to violence and slaughter to survive. The natural right I approach is something that is moral while Hobbes is instinctual. Today's world there is no real reason to be instinctual because humans are a species that are on the top of the food chain, being there we're allowed to become moral. I say that in order for government to rule they need to be able to protect our moral state and our natural rights.
There are three types of political states; good state maximizes the rights, bad state is on that doesn't grantee them, and an evil state assaults natural rights. The people are allowed to vote/chose who is leading them. If at some point a illegitimate government comes in they are to be revolted against. My social contract is citizens must consent to be government and must vote for the one who will lead as long as they are going to protect natural rights.

 The Declaration of Independence was something that was influenced mostly by me because the founding fathers thought it would be beneficial to the new country. Some say that America was great experiment based on my theories. This fallows his blank slate belief as the Country is new and those who came can start with a black slate.

Something that can always apply to my theory is when someone move, a person can begin with becoming someone new in their new home. A person can have a blank mind in this new place and be open to anything when before they could have been someone who was more closed off.

My belief on everyone being born with a black mind and people become the way they are based on how and where they were raised. I say this because someone who born is going to be open minded to anything and will take in much of what they are given. Someone who was raised in rural Nepal is going to understand and know different things than someone who was born in the United States. They will live their life differently from the other. That's why I believe different environments determine how people can act.
