I personally believe that all states need strict governing and that Hobbes is mostly correct in his 6 "reasons." While I don't think humans should live like ants and bees, I believe that we should try and work to have similar traits as them. With bees, as Hobbes stated, all they do is try and achieve a greater level of good with in their hive. All bees work equally together and don't try to compare themselves against anyone. As long as you are a bee, I have no problem with you so lets do something good together. However, this is impossible to achieve with humans with the rules and regulations we have on us now. While I do not think all humans should be turned into brainwashed robots who only wish to "better the hive," I believe we should break down the walls of comparison and jealousy to allow us to except our selves for who we are and to not care about what other people have. However, this task can not be completed with out some form of strict ruling. If people would stop being envious of others, and started to work for something that achieves good instead of evil, the world as we know it would be transformed into a completely different place. I am not trying to say that all humans should not have emotions, but what good does jealousy do?
