Question

locke and the dangers of government
when legislators (lawmakers) try to destroy or take away
the property of the people, or try to reduce them to
slavery, they put themselves into a state of war with the
people who can then refuse to obey the laws. when
legislators try to gain or give someone else absolute power
over lives, liberties, and property of the people, they
abuse the power which the people had put into their
hands.
according to locke, what may happen when
legislators destroy someones property?
people may become enslaved to the government
people may stop doing what the government says.
people may give the government more power.
people may decide to return to the state of nature.

Explanation:

The text states that when legislators destroy people's property, they enter a state of war with the people, who can then refuse to obey the government's laws. This matches the second option. The other options do not align with the provided passage: enslavement is an action legislators attempt, not the people's response; people would not give more power; returning to the state of nature is not mentioned as the direct response here.

Answer:

B. People may stop doing what the government says.
