Many minds that are functioning under the influence of the veil of ignorance would interpret 'public servant' and 'public service' as the public servants are the servants that are obliged to serve the public that 'deserve' all kinds of public services, and hence, the public can take the public servants and the public services for granted without showing respect or gratitude.
No doubt that public servants are holding the 'job' or 'duty' to be 'providing all kinds of public services to the public', and there shouldn't be any sense of superiority, but there also shouldn't be any sense of inferiority as well for being 'the public servants' that 'provide all kinds of public services to the public'.
Just as there is neither superiority nor inferiority in those who show kindness to others and those who receive kindness from others.
Just as none are obligated to be kind to one another, while none are obligated to be 'public servant' to 'provide public service' to anyone.
One can be kind to one another, out of freewill, generosity, and correct understanding, similarly, one can be engaging in a 'job' or 'duty' as a 'public servant' to provide 'public service' to the public, out of freewill, generosity, and correct understanding.
Any kind of action, that is being performed either for oneself or for others, regardless of whether the others are one's family and friends or not one's family and friends, and regardless of whether the others are from one's particular community or from the vast diverse communities, regardless of locally or globally, and regardless of it's doing a job being employed by some others or it's running a business that employs some others, or it's a charitable volunteer work for humanity/animals/environment/underprivileged community/discriminated community/exploited community/oppressed community/ill-treated community and so on, all actions are being performed out of one's own freewill, generosity, and correct understanding. There is neither superiority nor inferiority. There is neither more priority nor less priority. There is neither deserving nor non-deserving. There is neither personal nor non-personal.
By looking after the over-all well-being of oneself and performing one's personal duty and responsibility independently and effectively, is also simultaneously contributing and promoting conducive condition/peace and harmony into the surrounding environment that will benefit all and everyone and everything naturally or intentionlessly, and vice versa.
It is not about the public 'deserves' to be receiving 'public service' from anyone.
It is not about, "These are the 'public servants' that 'provide public services' to the public, and hence, they are more superior, and they deserved respect and gratitude from the public."
And it is definitely not about, "They are the 'public servants' that provide 'public services' to the public, and hence, they are merely some inferior 'servants' of the public to 'serve' the public, where the 'public servants' work for the public, where the public pay tax to employ the 'public servants' to provide 'public services' to 'serve' the public, and it is their obligated 'job' or 'duty' to serve the public, and hence, they don't deserve any respect or gratitude for performing their 'job' or 'duty'. They are 'obligated' to 'serve' the public, and the public is their boss/employer, and hence, the public is more superior than the public servants."
That is common incorrect interpretation or understanding deriving from ignorance, particularly due to the wording of 'public servant and public service' instead of 'public facilitator and public facilitation'.
Out of the conscious freewill, generosity, and correct understanding of oneself, each and everyone respect one another as they are indiscriminately and unconditionally, and are being grateful and thankful that there are some people are willingly to serve the community by taking up the job or duty to be 'the public servants' that perform or carryout the job/responsibility of 'facilitating all kinds of public services and conveniences to the public', regardless of with or without taking fixed amount of salary or fees.
Above all, the public service administration from the top managements to the many different departments and operations need to be free from the influence of ignorance and the by-products of ignorance ('corrupted public servants' and 'all kinds of corruptions'), to be supporting and facilitating constructive activities and progress in the world of many diversities that doesn't belong to anyone or anything.
Inquire the truth of everything, and be free.
