john Locke was a philosopher who inspired the American and the French Revolution. He believed that people were born with equal rights and not just the king had all the rights. He believed "Gov't should respect people and get it in return".

John lockes arguements were used to help humans keep their natural rights.
Hobbes' and Locke's theories have little influence in American thought today. Hobbes' Leviathan has been used as a bible by the dictatorships of Africa. Locke had great influence during the time of the American Revolution. His writing influenced the Declaration of Independence. Today, all politics are local. Politics has been reduced to a combination of, "What have you done for me lately?" "I want mine now." And mantras. Too much American thought today consists of politically correct thinking and wants little to do with the writings of dead white men. Maybe some day America will return to such interest.
Lockes inalienable rights were life, liberty, and property.
John Locke's theories that contributed toward life, liberty and property for each individual were primary concepts borrowed and built into the American Constitution/Declaration.
United States: Locke formed the basis of the Declaration of Independence. Thomas Jefferson (writer of Declaration) based it on Locke's philosophy of natural rights, or as he called them, "inalienable rights," of life, liberty, and property.
John Locke believed in empiricism, arguing that all knowledge comes from sensory experience. He also emphasized the concept of natural rights and the social contract theory in political philosophy, advocating for individual liberty and limited government. Locke's ideas greatly influenced the development of modern political thought and liberalism.

John Locke's natural rights, as proposed in his philosophy, include the right to life, liberty, and property. These rights are seen as inherent to all individuals and are not granted by any government or authority. Locke believed that governments exist to protect these natural rights, and individuals have the right to resist or overthrow a government that fails to do so.
human beings derive their rights from nature
He argued so that people have natural rights.
Locke's social contract theory related to his belief in natural law was a moral account. This started in history.
