Answer:

B. Thomas Hobbes

Explanation:

Thomas Hobbes was an English philosopher best known for his political philosophy. He believed that humans were aggressive competitors, violent, selfish and brutish, who were always in the constant pursuit of power and glory. So, in order to establish a civil society, receive protection, avoid conflicts, maintain peace and live better, a "social contract" between a ruler and people was necessary.

Through the contract, all individuals in society would cede their natural rights to an absolute government that ensured collective security, even if that government interfered with citizens' personal freedom, or abused of its power. Therefore, Thomas Hobbes is the philosopher that would definitely support the type of government described in the statement.
