Introduction


Equality is the highest valued virtue in the world today. The reason as to why

countries have systems of law and governance is because some elements in those

countries may try to exploit others. As such, efforts are made to curtail any people

who may feel that they are more human than others. As such, an ideal society can be

defined as a society where the rule of law is upheld to the maximum. This is whereby

everyone has equal access to social amenities and various resources of the state. Also,

in such a society it is paramount that the members of such a community have a good

system of governance. This method should not be partisan to anybody in the nation

despite their financial power or influence among people in the society. An ideal

society should also have systems which do not allow a little p[eople to have supreme

authority over the rest of the population. For instance, in most democratic

governments in the world, power is shared among three arms of the govern,meant

which are the Legislature, Judiciary, and the Executive. This makes it hard for one of

the arms to make any unlawful step which may cause oppression to the people.


Thomas Jefferson


Thomas Jefferson propagated the idea that all human beings were equal and had

equal rights which were granted by their maker. He was a famous politician of the

United States. Thomas Jefferson began his career being a lawyer since he had been

admitted to the bar in his home county Virginia where he had been born and raised

up. Apparently, The politician went ahead to become the congressman o0f Virginia

and later the governor of the same region. He also became the Secretary of state for

the United states and then the president of the United States. He made various

contributions to the creation of an ideal society in the United states through the

, declaration of Independence where he was on the steering committee that came up

with the document. The politician can be remembered for three of the most significant

contributions to the US throughout his political career. The first one of those

contributions is that he led to the construction of the Virginia University. Secondly,

Thomas Jefferson also declared religious independence in the stater Virginia. Lastly,

His most Significant contribution was the drafting of the Declaration of

Independence. This document was meant to serve as a warning to the British

government against treating the US as a colony. Instead, the British JKingdsom wads

supposed to address the country as fully fledged states with the ability to respond

with, military action if provoked.


The dec; declaration of Independence (DOI) begins by dec; clearing the rights of

a human being., It states that according to the eyes of the creator all human beings are

equal. As such, they deserve fair treatment and are endowed with rights that are

unwithdrawable by any party of p[eople or person. The DOI also goes ahead to state

that power lies within the people that it is possible for the people to topple a

government on some bases. One basis could be the inability of a government to

protect those rights that are endowed to a human being or even the violation of those

rights. The declaration of independence goes ahead to declare the various violation

carried out by the British government on the people of the US. Thomas Jefferson

begins by laying out the characteristics of an ideal society and continues to describe

the manner In which the British govern=nmenet had violated those rights. To start

with, King George had violated the US peoples rights by continually dissolving

houses of representatives due to the mere fact that they did not side with his various

violations of Human rights. The British government had also maintained a direct

influence on the judges. As discussed in the introduction, any ideal society ought to
