john Locke's Treaties on Civil Government were a defense of the English Revolution of 1688, against James II. His argument that describes, "Everyone should be allowed to enjoy certain basic rights, particularly the rights to life, liberty, and the ownership of property," is the important point of the Social Contract.
When Thomas Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence, he incorporated Locke's point of view.
John Locke believed that society needed a government based on the principles of democracy and the social contract. He argued for a government that protects individuals' natural rights to life, liberty, and property, and that derives its authority from the consent of the governed. Locke emphasized the importance of limited government, separation of powers, and the right of the people to overthrow a government that fails to uphold their rights.
He proposed people should think for themselves and all had god given rights to property and protection.
I think you have it backwards, but that the United States democracy is based on the philosophy of Locke so the constitution agreed with Locke.
John Locke argued for the principles of individual rights and government by consent, suggesting that political power derives from the consent of the governed. While he championed the idea of representation and the protection of property rights, Locke's views on suffrage were limited, as he believed that only property-owning men should participate in governance. Thus, he did not advocate for universal suffrage but rather for a more restricted voting rights system that aligned with his beliefs about property and social contract theory.
John Locke believed that people should set up a new government when the existing government fails to protect their natural rights, namely life, liberty, and property. He argued that when a government violates these rights, people have the right to rebel and form a new government that will secure and protect their rights.

John Locke a famous philosopher in the 1600s believed that every person was entitled to three fundamental rights: life liberty and property. Locke argued that these rights were natural rights meaning that they were not granted by any government or society but instead were inherent to all people by virtue of their existence. Life: Locke believed that everyone has the right to live and should be allowed to pursue whatever life they choose. Liberty: Everyone should have the freedom to act and think as they choose so long as it does not infringe upon the rights of others. Property: Everyone should be able to possess and own property as long as it is acquired legally.These rights set the stage for many of the ideas and values that we still hold today.

In the book "The Chrysalids," the society of Waknuk follows strict religious rules that emphasize purity and conformity. They believe in purging mutations, known as deviations, to maintain a perfect image of God's creation. Those who do not adhere to these rules are ostracized or exiled, as differences are seen as a threat to society.

He states that people have a right to change the government. The thing about Locke is that he wrote this in a time when only kings had ruled for a thousand years. It was a revolutionary thought for it’s time.
Yes because if there were no rules kids would learn nothing and would get to do anything that they wanted to.
