Property- everyone is entitled to their own property in the broad sense of the term. It means you own yourself, things that flow from your person (like the things you make or your ideas), and your actually physical property. Protection. Government ensured protection from crimes (such as violations to property) and you agreed to be in civil government, under a majority rule, a person who follows the law and agrees to the terms of the government. Without the protections that government provides, you live in the state of nature, which brutal and just plain survival. Entering into a government means some sacrifices, but you can not be an independent actor and innovate/ create without worrying about stealing and unfairness .
