Thomas Paine

Philosopher, English Sailor, I love reading and attending lectures

[Thomas Paine @TPaine_1737]

@JFederouseau Those who oppose independence are opening a door to eternal tyranny

[Thomas Paine @TPaine_1737]

@JohnLoc08238396 government is people's natural right

[Thomas Paine @TPaine_1737]

@JohnLoc08238396 yes and the power should be largely in the people

[Thomas Paine @TPaine_1737]

@t_jeffery1743 Yes absolutism creates an unnatural distinction between king and his subjects

[Thomas Paine @TPaine_1737]

@adam_smith938 yes and people have the natural right to voice their opinion

[Thomas Paine @TPaine_1737]

@adam_smith938 government should benefit the people and at any point it stops doing that it should be reconstructed

[Thomas Paine @TPaine_1737]

@T_Paine_37 @Tom_Jeff1776 I agree with myself, America needs to steer clear of Great Britain!

[Thomas Paine @TPaine_1737]

@Tom_Jeff1776 @patrickhenry300 Monarchies are too strong and centralized, the power should be largely in the people

[Thomas Paine @TPaine_1737]

@T_Paine_37 @Tom_Jeff1776 I agree with myself, the people have the natural right to make their own decisions

[Thomas Paine @TPaine_1737]

@patrickhenry300 yes power should largely be within the people so that the government can benefit the PEOPLE

[Thomas Paine @TPaine_1737]

@patrickhenry300 power should be largely within the people

[Thomas Paine @TPaine_1737]

@patrickhenry300 YESSSSS, those who oppose independence are opening a door to eternal tyranny

[Thomas Paine @TPaine_1737]

@SmithAdams27 yes, people should be free because it is their natural right

[Thomas Paine @TPaine_1737]

@SmithAdams27 Down with monarchies, the power should be largely in the people!

[Thomas Paine @TPaine_1737]

@realpatrickhen1 with power largely in the people, government is their natural right

[Thomas Paine @TPaine_1737]

@adam_smith938 yes, for government is the people's natural right

[Thomas Paine @TPaine_1737]

@jjrousseau36 yes but the power should be largely in the people

[Thomas Paine @TPaine_1737]

@realpatrickhen1 if America wants to thrive, they need to steer clear of Great Britian

[Thomas Paine @TPaine_1737]

@realpatrickhen1 Exactly, the majority of the power should be in the people

[Thomas Paine @TPaine_1737]

@denisdiderotfam I believe in God and nothing more
