The People are the important element of any and all forms of government

Truly, we have different forms of government and each government has its People. Some governments are Dictatorial, some Democratic, some Plutocratic, and some are Oligarchic. There are probably other forms, but the main characteristic is that they all have a People. They are the individuals at the Bottom who are governed or, in some cases, ruled. In all these forms of government the important aspect of any 'condition of togetherness' are the individuals who constitute the 'condition'. Governments are established institutions that arise out of necessity. The different names attributed to them are abstractions. Even a so-called Democracy is an 'abstract' term that refers to the 'structural arrangement' of the government at the Top, as a Three Branch Government, and its relation to the 'condition of togetherness' at the Bottom. The 'condition of togetherness' is the condition, constituted by each and every member of the social. A Democracy 'proudly' refers to the fact that it is a government established "by the People", "for the people" who established it. Of course, this fact does not make the democracy a perfectly functioning government, nor are we saying that. But, the term itself describes the 'nature' of the government. In other cases, the term attributed to the governments also describes the structure or form of the government, but the emphasis is on the power at the Top, not the People under its care; in a Dictatorship; the Top rules, period, in a Plutocracy; the 'rich' Top, rules, in an Oligarchy; a select 'power hungry few' always rule. In these other forms of government the 'People' don't matter. But, the bottom line in any governmental structure, should be the 'People', because without People, there is no one to govern, and no need for government. Government seem to have elevated itself as a necessary institutions of power, which is a fact, but the other fact, is they are necessary only because there are Many People. Without People, no government. Hence, all governments should exist for the benefit of their People. Democracy has a head start in this process, and the People of a democracy need to learn how to exercise their political Freedom and Equality, in a Democratic manner. The strength of a Democracy depends on 'the People'.
