Answer:

D)To show why the state of nature is inadequate for determining what our fundamental rights should be.

Explanation:

John Locke, an English philosopher, widely referred to as Father of Liberalism, examines the "State of Nature" for the purpose of showing why the state of nature is inadequate for determining what our fundamental rights should be.

According to him, each individual in a society has a natural right to protect his or her own life, liberty, and property and at the same time, each individual has a natural right to seek for compensation for any wrongful injury to his or her natural rights; life, liberty, or property which has been inflicted by other individuals.

However, Locke, believed that, since 'state of nature' is more or less a state of insecurity, that is, each individual is not secured to possible infringement of his or her natural rights by other individuals. Hence, the needs to create a civil government, whose purpose is to protect the natural rights, freedom and well-being of all members of society.

This is because, in a "state of nature" there is no legislative or judicial authority that members of the society can seek for help in order to protect their natural rights, such as lives, liberty, or property. But to ensure there is security and protection to individuals natural right, there is need for a civil government, with a judicial authority whose purpose is to resolve disputes fairly and equitably.

Why is living on credit both dangerous to you personally and dangerous to the country?​
worty [1.4K]
Honestly it’s not dangerous to live on credit unless you DON’T PAY YOUR BILLS because with cash you have a higher chance of your money being lost or stolen, and with debit you can only pay exactly what you have in your account penny for penny, but with credit you can over spend a little on Thursday if your pay check comes tomorrow.
