I've come to the conclusion that neither John Locke or Thomas Hobbes is exactly correct. No one is just flat out selfish, take a peak at the other side, ( no one is completely peaceful ) . One day you could care only about what you need aka the "me theory". Doing what you believe will only help you survive. The next day you'd have a complete turning point and help out a local homeless shelter. When you look around, you will see violence no matter where you are, but think again; everyone isn't like that. Some people can live without the guidance of government, but to be sure we have a structured world, our country should enforce government. We should be sure everyone has a say in, causing less chaos, a new amount of peace.
"Give up your selfishness, and you shall find peace; like water mingling with water, you shall merge in absorption."
