I would try to reason with the people, cut back on the lavish lifestyle and put that money towards the common people. Obviously like and monarch I would want to stay in my position of power, but I would try to learn to use my power and wealth for good rather than live a life of luxury while the people of my nation suffer. The French revolution was in a way a good thing to happen for what was going on, but it very well could have been avoided if the monarch had just listened.
Monarchs shouldn't give huge amount of power, and if they are it needs to still be regulated on what they can and cannot do.
The U.S. Constitution is often cited as an explicitexample of part of America's social contract. It sets out what the government can and cannot do. People who choose to live in America agree to be governed by the moral and political obligations outlined in the Constitution's social contract.
