Ohn Locke would have agreed with all of the following statements EXCEPT:

A.
Government should be accountable to the people it governs.
B.
A government should protect people’s natural rights to life, liberty, and property.
C.
A government should have limited power so that it does not infringe on the rights of its citizens.
D.
Government should have the authority to suppress the will of its citizens if it deems it to be crucial to society.

Answer 1

D. Government should have the authority to suppress the will of its citizens if it deems it to be crucial to society.

Step-by-step explanation:

Locke believed that the main authority in the state should be with the people. Are people are created equal, he said.

That is why D would be the only option as a correct answer. He wouldn't agree with the government suppressing the will of the citizens.

Option A, B and C are something that Locke would agree with, because he didn't believe in the full authority of the king, or government.
