Answer:
Yes, the founding fathers made the right decision in selecting the views of John Locke rather than Thomas Hobbes
Explanation:
Two famous English philosophers have influenced politics. John Locke and Thomas Hobbes have made contributions with their beliefs that helped to lay a structured society. Locke has been the most prominent in giving ideas on the view of human nature, individual rights which assisted in forming a constitution that still exists.
Thomas Hobbes introduced ideas based on social contract theory. In the social contract, people usually transfer their natural rights. He used the social contract method to describe that people should submit to the authority of absolute power. It seems that Hobbes ideas have not taken in the founding paper of the United States.
