By definition, a wire service is a company which makes use of an electrical communication system to provide radios,television,newspapers,among other means of communication, with the news.

Wire services,also called news agencies,may be private organizations, government-operated or non-profit corporations.

According to its definition, a wire service would exert a great impact on what one can read in the local paper since it is the main source of information for the news they are going to report.

John Locke thiught people were neither good nor bad naturally.How did Hobbes views differ from lockes
ruslelena [56]

Answer:  Hobbes believed people were naturally selfish and violent.

<u>Further explanation</u>:

Both English philosophers believed there is a "social contract" -- that governments are formed by the will of the people.  But their theories on why people want to live under governments were very different.

Thomas Hobbes published his political theory in <em>Leviathan </em> in 1651, following the chaos and destruction of the English Civil War.  He saw human beings as naturally suspicious of one another, in competition with each other, and evil toward one another as a result.  Forming a government meant giving up personal liberty, but gaining security against what would otherwise be a situation of every person at war with every other person.

John Locke published his <em>Two Treatises on Civil Government </em>in 1690, following the mostly peaceful transition of government power that was the Glorious Revolution in England.  Locke believed people are born as blank slates--with no preexisting knowledge or moral leanings.  Experience then guides them to the knowledge and the best form of life, and they choose to form governments to make life and society better.

In teaching the difference between Hobbes and Locke, I've often put it this way.  If society were playground basketball, Hobbes believed you must have a referee who sets and enforces rules, or else the players will eventually get into heated arguments and bloody fights with one another, because people get nasty in competition that way.   Locke believed you could have an enjoyable game of playground basketball without a referee, but a referee makes the game better because then any disputes that come up between players have a fair way of being resolved.    Of course, Hobbes and Locke never actually wrote about basketball -- a game not invented until 1891 in America by James Naismith.  But it's just an illustration I've used to try to show the difference of ideas between Hobbes and Locke.   :-)

Why do you think the Framers wanted the states to have power as well as the Federal government?
mash [69]

The general consensus amongst historians is that the balance between Federal and State powers was done to appease those who were afraid that too strong of a federal government would be no different than the monarchy that the colonists were overthrowing.
