Human nature

I agree with Maggie that Hobbes is wrong about human nature. I think that being competitive is a good thing. For example when you have a job people are always competing to get promotions. If people did not compete they would be lazy and wouldn't be trying their best, but having competition people are always trying their best. Hobbes says that competition will keep us from working together, but the competition keeps people working hard. This makes a better work place for all of the people. When people see each other working hard they try to do better and it is a continuos pattern. Without competition not as much would be accomplished in jobs.
