Which of these ideas from the Declaration of Independence explains the proper purpose of government
"We hold these truths to be self-evident."
"All men are created equal."
"To secure these rights, governments are instituted among men."
"It becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands."

The correct answer is "To secure these rights, governments are instituted among men."

John Locke believed that the government's aim was to help all people achieve equality of natural rights, and that the government is obliged to protect and defend its citizens.

Locke rejected the belief that some people were born to rule divinely over others simply because they belonged to a higher class. Locke firmly believed that even a monarchy should reign only with the consent of the people. His radical beliefs at the time made him a target for British monarchs who believed that average citizens should stay in their place and outside government activities.

on this day in 1939, in response to hitler’s invasion of poland, britain and france, both allies of the overrun nation declare war on germany.

the first casualty of that declaration was not german—but the british ocean liner athenia, which was sunk by a german u-30 submarine that had assumed the liner was armed and belligerent. there were more than 1,100 passengers on board, 112 of whom lost their lives. of those, 28 were americans, but president roosevelt was unfazed by the tragedy, declaring that no one was to “thoughtlessly or falsely talk of america sending its armies to european fields.” the united states would remain neutral.

as for britain’s response, it was initially no more than the dropping of anti-nazi propaganda leaflets—13 tons of them—over germany. they would begin bombing german ships on september 4, suffering significant losses. they were also working under orders not to harm german civilians. the german military, of course, had no such restrictions. france would begin an offensive against germany’s western border two weeks later. their effort was weakened by a narrow 90-mile window leading to the german front, enclosed by the borders of luxembourg and belgium—both neutral countries. the germans mined the passage, stalling the french offensive.
