Hey there! I'm happy to help!
John Locke's philosophies were very influential on the ideas of the Founding Fathers of America.
Locke talks a lot about perfect freedom. He said that we are born being able to do whatever we want, but there are a few important conditions. So, a person technically is free to go around slapping people on the street, correct?
Well, yes you technically do that. Why do people not do that though? Well, they don't give up that freedom because they are comfortable, safe, or living in a peaceful society. Lots of people might feel unsafe in a country, but they don't go around slapping people on the street, so D and B are incorrect.
C. is incorrect as well because the government doesn't say "don't go around hurting people and then we'll recruit you!" It's silly!
The correct answer is A) for the benefit and protection of society. You choose go around slapping people because you don't want people to hate you. You do it so that your neighbors are safe. That's why we pay taxes: to benefit society, which ultimately includes us. This is a principle found in American society today, and many America's core values stem for Locke's philosophies.
Have a wonderful day and keep on learning! :D
