Durke believes that the government shouldn’t have the power to decide the color of Cisneros’s house. Durke asked that “what makes city government think it knows what’s best for us?” Durke’s point is that sometimes the decisions of the government are inappropriate for its people. Durke emphasizes that people should be free to manage their lives without government inference.

The government regulates that all drivers must have driver licenses. All drivers must control the emission from the cars in the qualified range that can protect the environment. The limit of driving speed can reduce traffic accidents.

She persuades the reader that further government intervention will be negative, through the provision of a hypothetical example that shows this exactly, where imposed price controls harm farmers which in the past advocate for government intervention. Question 2: Why does Krueger assume that individuals within the public sector do not possess a self-interest that aligns themselves with Benthamite’s vision of social justice?
“This is how we use the constitution today, because the constitution is our government(Uhlmann)”. “If there was no constitution, then there is no United States, because our country wouldn’t work without a government(Uhlmann)”. This is how government impacts us
Governmental power is often held by a few, and this also leads to problems as citizens feel that their voices are not being heard. This inequality is not seen only between people and the government, but also different groups of citizens today (gender, race,

What is something that every single person in the world cherishes? What is something that people long for? The Color Purple by Alice Walker stretches the answer to that question with a series of letters between two sisters that spans forty years. A story of women joined together by love and hardship, The Color Purple depicts the value of family.

Maria Amparo Ruiz De Burton work entitled the “The Squatter and the Don” captures the essence of Michel Foucault’s proposition on discourse and power by drawing from the Treaty of Guadalupe-Hidalgo in 1848. She illustrates the racism and deprived rights the Mexican-American faced after being falsely promised to be given citizenship. The discourse of Burton’s work is the written laws that any citizen living within the state is supposed to abide by. Don Mariano is a man of the Alamar family who resided in San Deigo with his wife Dona Josefa and their children.

Huxley’s novel provides the perfect warning about what too much government can do to a society. Huxley uses strict principles to warn us of the dangers of too much government control and technology.

Through the state motto we see many dangers and how to potentially avoid them. Community is important but so is independence.
In the conclusion of this paper, I will have illustrated that Plato’s government view is more valid than of Locke’s. In Book II of Plato’s Republic, Plato describes a just city to look at the concepts of political justice. He refers to this city as Kallipolis.
