Question

based on the declaration of independence, which statement best describes the founding fathers view on the role of government?
all forms of government are oppressive and limit peoples rights.
government is necessary in any society to protect the rights of the citizens.
a government should never be led by a king or a royal family.
a government must be disbanded if it does not reflect the will of all its citizens.

Explanation:

The Declaration of Independence states that governments are instituted among men to secure unalienable rights (life, liberty, pursuit of happiness), deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. It does not reject all government, only unjust ones; it does not single out royal families as the only illegitimate leaders, and it allows for altering government when it fails to protect rights, not just disbanding over not reflecting every citizen's will.

Answer:

Government is necessary in any society to protect the rights of the citizens.
