Marxism
It's a hot humid day in a far off Middle Eastern country. The loud bellowing sound of buyers and sellers echoes off the old brick and clay walls down the narrow market street. The smell of freshly cooked chicken lingers in the air and you briskly walk across town. But suddenly your peaceful afternoon at the local flea market turns into a horrid blend of terror and violence. The laughter of children and market goes turns into screams and panic as shots ring out. Bombs go off at every which corner as the local rebels rush into the streets to seize whatever food and supplies they can. The crops a farmer took months laboring over are thrown into the back of a truck. The blankets an elderly woman and her granddaughter made are tossed onto the backs of the mad gunman. Pots and vases a young boy slaved hours to make and stolen in an instance. But as quickly as it all happened, the confusion and disorientation of the entire ordeal is shattered with the piercing silence of what's left. The reason that these savage murders and crazed gunman acted in such a way is because of the simple characteristics of human nature. It is simply the way that man was born mentally that has allowed for such situations to occur. It is human nature that has
It would benefit society and man as a whole, then it was the right thing to do. put man at bay to his own desire for what he needs and for what he cannot have. This is why Locke insisted that the creation of a government would be dependent on the sharing of the power amongst the people and the government. However in contrast to what the 3 aforementioned philosophers believed in, the ideologist Machiavelli saw government as an absolute rule. With these four types of governments on paper, they seem to be good candidates for how a country would want their people to be ruled. Locke's and Hobbes governments are both flawed because of neithers ability to deal with the ever-changing human being. Man found it necessary for his private property to be protected at all cost and Locke found that only a form of equality in government was the way to do this. Seeing as Hobbes believed in the idea of "every man against every man", the concept of lies and deceit in the government was a very present threat that in hand doomed this form of government because of the selfish wants of both the people and the ruler. When the rebels became hungry or where in need of supplies, they would simply just attack this poor unprotected market for all of its goods. Like Locke, the philosopher Marx believed that all men were in fact created equal. For the philosopher Locke, saw it necessary that government be composed of and run by everyday. Hobbes, saw government as a social contract in which the people would enter through the election and upbringing of a righteous leader. The government Marx suggested would be too much of a communist state for it to actually be successful as a government. It was Marx who believed in the idea of the ends justifying the means. See Locke saw that all men were created equal, but he also noted that even though equality was amongst all, there was still the power for the weakest to over throw the strongest.
