People need government, but government is only the 'form' required to govern.

People need Government, but Government is only the necessary form that 'governing' must take. The 'necessary' form I refer too is the Democratic form. Its a 'necessary form' because the structure gives all the People their rightful place in the governing process. The People constitute the essence of governing. Other forms of 'governing' do not consider the people as important to the form. In those forms, the people are there to be told what to do. Their views are unimportant and they do not participate in the process of governing; much like 'subjects' in the old Divine Right of Kings type of rule, or, like the absolute type of rule in Dictatorship. People do not select the type of 'governing' they wish to come under. Through no choice of their own, they're born into a form of government. ( "there, but for the Grace of God, go I" ) No One individual or, individuals, has a Right or the 'power' to govern 'others',much less, the Many at the Bottom of the relation of, the Top and the Bottom, of Government. Yes, People need Government; Government does not 'need' People; hell, government wouldn't even exist, if it were not for People. People are 'more' the products of an 'act of Divinity'(assuming there are such) than Government ever will. Governments are 'arbitrary set-ups' of certain individuals. ( 'Democracy' is fortunate in having had the 'right' Founding Fathers) All People need Government. Unfortunately, not all forms of government are democratic. But, we seem to be going in the right direction. Of course, this last statement takes us out into the International spheres of Government. Of course, and without a doubt, they are also 'Peoples', and they deserve Democratic governments, also. How is the United Nations handling democracy? People are important, Nationally, and equally important, Internationally.
