Government
A government is the system or group of people governing an organized community, often a state.
Public
In public relations and communication science, publics are groups of individual people, and the public (a.k.a. the general public) is the totality of such groupings. This is a different concept to the sociological concept of the Öffentlichkeit or public sphere. The concept of a public has also been defined in political science, psychology, marketing, and advertising. In public relations and communication science, it is one of the more ambiguous concepts in the field. Although it has definitions in the theory of the field that have been formulated from the early 20th century onwards, it has suffered in more recent years from being blurred, as a result of conflation of the idea of a public with the notions of audience, market segment, community, constituency, and stakeholder.
Government
What experience and history teach is this, ... that nations and governments have never learned anything from history or acted upon any lessons they might have drawn from it.
Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, cited in Awake! magazine 2002, 8/8; article: The Nations Are Still Not Learning
Government
The government of the Union, then, is emphatically and truly a government of the people. In form and in substance it emanates from them. Its powers are granted by them, and are to be exercised directly on them and for their benefit.
Chief Justice John Marshall, McCulloch vs. Maryland, 4 Wheaton 316 (1819)
