“The like natural inducement hath brought men to know that it is no less their duty to
love others than themselves, for seeing those things which are equal, must needs all have
one measure; if I cannot but wish to receive good, even as much at every man's hands, as
any man can wish unto his own soul, how should I look to have any part of my desire
herein satisfied, unless myself be careful to satisfy the like desire, which is undoubtedly
in other men weak, being of one and the same nature: to have anything offered them
repugnant to this desire must needs, in all respects, grieve them as much as me; so that if I
do harm, I must look to suffer, there being no reason that others should show greater
measure of love to me than they have by me showed unto them; my desire, therefore, to

rights, life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. With these rights, there should be a
government that protects these for each person and only protects natural rights, a
government that does nothing else. He also beleived that a government should be
overthrown if it doesn’t protect or even takes away an individuals natural rights. And that
wasn’t all he thought about government, he protested a monarchy, and that government
should have very little power and was accepted by all citizens.  Locke was dead nuts
correct when he wrote this book, except when he stated that a government should be
accepted by all citizens, I personally do not ever, trust me when I say this, ever, want to
accept the same things as my Uncle Mike.  My Uncle Mike is a drunk idiot who wants
nothing more than to become Thomas Hobbes, yes I ...
