Thomas Hobbes Follow Up
I agree with most of what John said. The part of "Of Commonwealth" that made the most sense to me was about how without laws people cannot peacefully coexist. I agree with what Hobbes said when he was talking about how we cannot live sociably with each other such as ants and bees do. The six reasons/differences make a lot of sense and explain why we could never live like that. I also agree with John's point about a "leviathan" being a dictator and being bad for a society, but I disagree with John's las point about the "leviathan" possibly being the best solution we have. Democracy, for example, has clearly shown more successful for the good of the people and is a better solution that a dictatorship. I believe that there are always options, and I don't think the dictatorship is the best one.
