ABOUT COMMON SENSE:
Thomas Paine's Common Sense argues that concentrated political power, whether in a monarchy or elite class, is unjust and undermines democracy. He advocates for a government accountable to the people, emphasizing transparency, representation, and checks on power. Citizens have the right and responsibility to challenge unjust government actions, making the case for a more participatory, responsive democracy.
