Document Summary
Natural as human beings, the state of natures a state where human being are in their natural state. All human beings have natural pity and natural compassion. A reluctance to see another sentient being suffer. A sentient being is any creature that can feel pain. The further we get from the state of nature the more we tend to let this natural pity and compassion diminish. We use our human reason to detach ourselves from other human beings. The more advanced a civil society becomes the more we establish inequality within civilized society. Private property corrupts us because it establishes a system where the wealth make laws neglecting the poor. The poor should not be so poor that they sell their bodily labour. The wealthy should not be enough to afford to pay for bodily labour. The general will is was is generally good for all of society and is what should govern society.
