Answer:
Two options are correct here:
- They were fleeing from religious persecution.
- They wanted more economic opportunity.
Explanation:
Since the foundation of the first English colony in the New World, people who decide to emigrate to the Unites States have been often leaving religious persecution at home, or they left because they wanted to live their lives according to religious rules not accepted by mainstream practices of their time. The other powerful motive for emigration to the USA is search for economic opportunities not available in the home country, or some material motives such as escaping poverty, famine or lack of farming lands.
The answer is: People surrender some of their natural rights in exchange for the common good
Both Rousseau and Locke theorized about the Social contract which is a type of agreement between the people and the legitimate powers of authority that results in the formation of a<u> state or an organized society</u>, the prime motive being the desire for protection, and in order to achieve this common good they had to be willing to forfeit some of their rights and impose the same duties on all.
