John Locke speaks of a state of nature where men are free, equal, and independent. He champions the social contract and govern­ment by consent that is elected by the people . He argues that the govern­ment must respect the rights of individuals.  Locke's formula for limited govern­ment inspired the American Founding Fathers to fight against social injustices and for independence.
