Best Answer

john Locke said that people were reasonable by birth and thomas hobbs said they were violent and disorderly. since neither is correct, we must sit on the fence with one foot on both sides and come to our own conclusion.

It is really a matter of opinion.

Hobbes would say that humans are naturally power-hungry and are constantly endeavouring towards their desires

Locke would say that humans are naturally independent creatures who each have the authority to execute the law and have the right to life, liberty, and property

Rousseau would say that humans are naturally 'noble savages'; simple, ape-like, independent creatures that have few needs, which are easily met

There are more, these are just a few examples
