Answer 2

Answer:

The Declaration of Independence

Explanation:

What is the first statement of the Declaration of Independence? That all men are created equal and with unalienable Rights. Sure, in this brief quote we can find the political thinking of John Locke and Jean-Jacques Rousseau. They advocated that humans are born free, but they choose to live in a community for protection and to maintain their rights giving their freedom to the State. Both philosophers believed that humans were free, equal, and the State created by them should keep them in that way. No matter if limiting the State influence over the individual (Locke) or living in community because they liked to be part of it (Rousseau), these two philosophers have the same idea about freedom.
