Your answer would most DEFINITELY be D., because it is already stated that "men", (all people), easily abuse the right of liberty and may not be given 100% trust, so the government must make sure to help protect the right from the selfishness of the people's use of that right. :)

Answer:

The quote best reflects the idea of natural law. It says government power must be restricted to protect rights because people by nature are selfish.

Explanation:

The natural law is a philosophy holding that all humans beings are born with certain inalienable and universal rights (such as the right to freedom, life, privacy, etc.). Sentence number 4 reflects this idea because "liberty" is considered one of those inalienable and universal rights that no one, not even the government, can take away from people, and it also reflects the idea that government power must be restricted to protect those rights because people by nature are selfish: "all men having power ought to be mistrusted."

The Union used a military strategy known as the Anaconda Plan. Which of the following describes this strategy correctly?
Temka [501]

Developed by General Scott, the Anaconda Plan was Scott's plan to blockade the Southern Coast and then go up around Texas and down the Mississippi into into Southern territories wreaking havoc and destruction as it was slowly getting strangled off from commerce.

The general idea was that if one was to blockade the South's coasts, you'd be able to keep them from getting supplies.

Historians have not been kind to the Anaconda Plan, commenting on the misidentification of the South's supply chains and what was actually necessary to cripple the Southern economy.
