Hobbes View

I do not agree with Devon's comment on how one leader is bad and how people do not have a say in a Hobbes "commonwealth". This is because in "Of Commonwealth" Hobbes clearly states that "...that they must reduce all their wills, by plurality of voices, unto one will:" Which means that the all of the people, give up their own free will willingly to be ruled by the leaders rule. This is a good thing because the leader must know what he is doing if he was chosen by the entire commonwealth to rule and protect the people and state.
