From Common Sense by Thomas Paine, OF MONARCHY AND HEREDITARY SUCCESSION
Men were originally created equal, and that quality could only be destroyed by some subsequent circumstance. That some people are rich and some are poor is explainable even though it follows misery and oppression. Selfish preservation is what keeps a man from being so poor he's destitute, but it's also what makes him fearful of taking the risks needed to be wealthy.
1. The problem of kings, authoritarian government and what we can learn from that today.
2. This also includes a fantastic history of government. Understanding this history puts a lot of modern issues into perspective.
3. All of this also reflects the influence of God and religion on government and politics.
