Rudiy27

The correct answer is:

A government's sole responsibility should be the protection of man's natural rights.

Explanation:

The Declaration of Independence was drafted by Thomas Jefferson to declare that the American colonies were now independent from the English Crown, and to state the reasons why that separation was needed. The main reasons stated in the Declaration of Independence were the violation of unalienable rights and liberties, in the document it was stated that whenever governments fail to secure those rights, people are forced to abolish that government, since it is the government's responsibility to protect the unalienable natural rights of people.

The Preamble of the Constitution, on the other hand, states that the American people gives the government the power to protect and secure their unalienable rights, freedom and property. The Constitution, therefor, is designed to protect the people and to prevent an abuse of power of the government.

Galina-37 [17]
