Educated: They must develop ways to acquire as much money as they can from the rest of the players, but they need other people (strong or uneducated players) to do the enforcing/execution of their plans. Educated/strong: They must develop ways to acquire as much money as they can from the rest of the players. They may execute their own plans or hire other people (strong or uneducated players) to carry them out. Strong: They can earn money only by executing the plans of the educated players, and negotiating a share of the money acquired. Uneducated: They can do only the bidding of the educated players— either directly or via the strong. If they work for the educated, they must accept whatever payment the educated players pay. But because this “society” has no rules, the educated players may choose not to pay. The uneducated may resist if they have a group that is larger than those who are taking the money.

IE, what does it feel the people and/or the government should do about it?  Step 3: ◦ Choose 1 of the issues and write a dialogue that would occur between the three philosophes about the issue.  Would they agree or disagree? At least 3 lines per philosophe.

QuotePhilosophe The world is a dangerous place to live; not because of the people who are evil, but because of the people who don't do anything about it. ~ Albert Einstein Hobbes The world is a dangerous place to live; not because of the people who are evil, but because of the people who don't do anything about it. ~ Albert Einstein Locke If the people cannot trust their government to do the job for which it exists - to protect them and to promote their common welfare - all else is lost. ~ Barack Obama Rousseau Freedom. Freedom of religion. Freedom to speak their mind. Freedom to build a life. And yes, freedom to build a business. With their own hands. This is the essence of the American experience. ~ Mitt Romney Voltaire A dictatorship would be a heck of a lot easier, there's no question about it. ~ George W. Bush Montesquieu

“What then is government? It is an intermediary body established between the subjects and the sovereign [king] to keep them in touch with each other…The government’s power is only the public power vested in it…when the [government] has a particular will of its own stronger than that of the sovereign…at that moment the social union will disappear and the body politic will be dissolved.” - Jean-Jacques Rousseau, The Social Contract, What did Rousseau mean by “an intermediary body” in the first line of this excerpt? 2. What would happen if government carried out its own wishes in opposition to those of the people?

“After the earthquake, which had destroyed three-fourths of the city of Lisbon, the sages [wise men] of that country could think of no means more effectual to preserve the kingdom from utter ruin than to entertain the people with an auto-da-fe [ritual of penance for condemned heretics], it having been decided by the University of Coimbra, that the burning of a few people alive by a slow fire, and with great ceremony, is an infallible preventive of earthquakes.” - Voltaire, Candide, What action did Portuguese leaders believe would save the country from further devastation? 2. How does the phrase “entertain the people with an auto-da-fe” reveal Voltaire’s disdain for Portuguese leaders?

“In a state of nature, there is…no Knowledge of the face of the Earth; no account of Time; no Arts; no Letters; no Society; and which is worst of all, continual fear, and danger of violent death; And the life of man, solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short.” - Thomas Hobbes, Leviathan, 1651 “The state of nature has a law of nature to govern it…no one ought to harm another in his life, health, liberty, or possessions:…Every one…may not…take away, or impair…the life, the liberty, health, limb, or goods of another.” - John Locke, Two Treatises on Government, How do Hobbes’s and Locke’s views of human nature differ?
