To provide a stable defense against adversaries.

To shelter us from poverty.

To allow us our freedoms.

To let our decisions affect its structure.

2. Would you be willing to join a revolution if our government was not fulfilling the purposes of government you listed above? Why? Why not? Yes; I would join a revolution. If the government were not upholding these attributes, especially the 'natural rights' and 'freedoms' parts, I would be very willing to join a revolution in order to better the government.
