Which best summarizes the social contract outlined in the preamble of the declaration of independence?

“Government has the power to protect natural rights, but people can change their government if it fails to do so”.

Explanation:

The Declaration of Independence was based on John Locke’s vision of the Social Contract. Locke’s idea was that all men have natural rights, such as life, liberty, and property. Based on a social contract, the government is created for the purpose of protecting the natural rights of people. And if the government fails to do so, people have the right to change the government. This argument was used by John Locke to justify the Glorious Revolution of 1688.
