The quote "people have rights as soon as they are born, and the government has a duty to protect these rights" aligns most closely with the ideas of **John Locke**. Locke's theory of natural rights posits that individuals are endowed with rights by virtue of being human, and it is the responsibility of the government to safeguard these rights.
