Enlightenment thinkers- Hobbes

A great afternoon for time travel, today we’ll visit Thomas Hobbes in the year 1651. His idea was that people need to be in control under a government. His ideas were that all people were evil in a way, and the government exists to protect people from themselves. His contribution to history was the very reason why we have a government in the first place.

"It is not wisdom but Authority that makes a law."- Thomas H
