Yes. The government is also made up of people, so without any restrictions, they will move only for the benefit of themselves. There should be elections, which allow people to have someone to represent their ideas. It is a key principle in democracy.

John Locke's theory that if a government fails to protect people's natural rights, then the people have the right to overthrow it and establish a new government is based on the idea of popular sovereignty. I think that Locke’s idea allows individuals to defend their rights and fight back against people who abuse their power.

I think that it depends because of course the government should protect people's right, but if they don't that we do need to make our own rights since they are necessary.

No. It is not only up to the government. For people to grow and become better, they should not need an outer force to enforce rules upon them. Still, there are some people that might not be deterred from acting out of morality. The government can establish regulations that reflect ethics and moral values. Moreover, they can make schools that promote self-thinking and betterment.

Locke’s theory has had major influence on the government and has had a major contribution to political processes. I agree with Lockwoods theory because if the government decides about society then society therefore should have the right to voice their opinion and be protected of their natural rights.

Yes, because if the government starts to make decisions without the consent of the public, that would lead to a tzrannical government that does not serve the public but only themselves.

Governments do play an important role in shaping society and the morals and values people share. However, people and institutions outside of government also play an important role in shaping society. For example, families, schools, religious institutions, and community organizations can all play a role in creating positive moral values and good behavior. While the government can play a role in promoting moral behavior through laws and regulations, it is ultimately up to individuals and communities to take responsibility for their own behavior.

I think Locke is right when he says that the government can be overthrown by the people if they are corrupt, and the people can make a new one. If the government abuses its power and starts using it for things that benefit themselves instead of the people, then they are not doing their job anymore. Instead of protecting the people's natural rights and ensuring their liberty and safety, they use their power for corruption and benefiting themselves. In a powerful position, when people experience what it is like having all the power, they can become greedy and abuse their power for more power and wealth. When this happens, the people should have the right to overthrow the government and make a new one who can do their job correctly without corruption.

Yes because if the people aren’t getting treated well by the government and the government isn’t allowing them their natural rights and preferring others making it unfair and not equal, the people should not treat the government well if the government doesn’t treat the people well.

Yes, because the function of the government is to serve the people and the moment that the government starts to serve themselves and not the needs of the public, the government is no longer fulfilling their needs and a new should be established.

I think it depends on the nation. Since it is much easier the smaller the government .  Like when America declared independence. But in a democracy like the United States I believe that it is not possible to overthrow the government.

I think that the government needs to have the consent of the people because otherwise democracy becomes a dictatorship in which the government rules and controls the people instead of improving and helping them. Since the government was made to protect our natural rights of life, liberty and property, their purpose is to protect people from harm without controlling them. However, if people do not want the government to do what they were formed to do but the government would still want power, it would turn into government vs. the people, which means the people would be fighting their own government who would abuse their power.

Yes, the government needs to have the consent of the people because if they don’t it can turn into a dictatorship and the people will start fearing the government as well as the people that the government is protecting them from. If people get to decide what the government does there will be fewer people unhappy.

No, I don’t think that it is only up to the government to teach people how to act better and be moral by making rules and enforcing them, I think that to morally believe what is right or wrong comes from yourself and how you think and how you were raised because even though there is a rule that states something you have your own opinion whether it is right or wrong.

Theoretically a government doesn't need Consent of the people if it is run by fear. Which is seen in North Coria. But I believe that if a government has consent of the people it will be much more successful and then obviously the people would be more happy.

I think the government plays an important role in teaching people how to act better and be more moral people by making rules and enforcing them, however, I also believe that society itself contributes to making people better. People in society such as teachers, nurses and professors help educate children and young adults and influence them to learn what the government defines as right and wrong. However, they also teach children to think more critically and develop their own ideas. Parents are also an important part of teaching children morals, because a child's mind is formed at a young age, and their ideas depend on what kind of environment the child grows up in.

No I think that the government should create laws to protect the people but not to show them how to better themselves and be moral. Since I believe that this should be done by the parents or from colleagues.

No, everybody should try to help and if they want to improve them. People should even strive to morally improve themselves; the government shouldn't have a monopoly on improvement. Because if the government is the only one making morals then what's keeping the government moral.

I would say they should have the right to because, as I said in the previous question, when a king raises taxes and plays favorites he's no longer trying to hold natural rights but instead trying to gain personal power which will slowly chip away at the foundation of the natural rights of life.

I think that this would not work because I believe that humans are greedy by nature and without laws and people that enforce those laws there would be chaos. Even with government, police, army, leaders, laws and court not all people are treated equally so getting rid of these parts of law there would be even more discrimination.

No, I don’t think that regular people would treat everyone as if they were “equal and independent” because due to people being greedy they would do everything to benefit themselves. If there were no police, army, leaders, laws, or courts the world would anyways end up having leaders and groups and the want of needing more.

Without the government, regular people would have free rein on themselves. Humans are inherently greedy, and freedom would allow them to perform in any way they want. Also, with no one to enforce laws and maintain order, there could be a risk of violence and chaos. Additionally, without laws and courts, disputes and conflicts might be resolved through violence, which could lead to further harm.

I think the government needs to have a structured and lawful life. Even if people state the Natural Law as the law there would be no consequences if these laws would be broken. The government ( police, army, leaders, laws, courts ) are needed to keep a structured life. However, it is difficult to say if people would how people would treat each other in the absence of a government. It's also possible that the absence of a government could lead to a breakdown in social order, with people resorting to violence, theft, or other forms of criminality when there is no form of leadership, consequence or government.

I think that without a government, people would treat each other differently and not always be “equal and independent”. Laws and the government keep people in place, and while they do not control people directly, they tell them what is right and wrong and people are punished for not obeying the law. I think this makes people stay in their place and treat others as equals and independent, but if there were nobody to tell people what is right and wrong, then they would not be punished  for their wrong actions and would have no real moral compass anymore, and therefore not respect natural rights as much.
