Why does Thoreau refer to civil disobedience not merely as a right but as a duty?

English
1 answer:
Amanda [17]4 years ago

Thoreau refused to pay an extra tax for the war in Mexico and went to jail for it. He believed that government had to have the consent of the people to wage war or collect taxes. Thoreau believed that the liberty of the individual transcended that of the state. He felt that it was the individual's duty to oppose "the machine" when it oversteps its bounds,

"Let every man make known what kind of government would command his respect, and that will be one step toward obtaining it."

Answer: No change is needed

Explanation: This is because the first one would make it seem like you can either have sand or water when you need both. The second one contradicts earlier when it says that you need the sand making it seem you don't later on. The third one sounds like it is saying you either need all the materials or time when you need all of these things. So the last one is correct. This sentence already makes sense
