The Public Sphere is an area in social life where individuals can come together to freely discuss and identify societal problems. The concept of the Public Sphere devoloped during "The Enlightenment" (1650-1800) Through such discussion, this Public Sphere can influence political action. Public referring to "Society as a whole". This as opposed to the Private Sphere such as family, the marketplace and Government Structures. The Public Sphere is a place common to all. It is in this Public Sphere where ideas and information can be exchanged. This public debate is defined as the expression of views on matters that are of concern to the public—often, but not always, with opposing or diverging views being expressed by participants in the discussion. Sharing of ideas in the Public Sphere between individuals without the overview of authority allowed for the creation and critique of ideas without fear of traditional authority figures.
Sharing of ideas in the Public Sphere led to the American and French Revolutions, and the eventual acceptance of the concepts of "Natural Law" and the "unalienable Natural Rights of Individuals" by Governments in the Western World

Ambulance chasers. A mostly unnecessary profession where someone "represents" the policyholder rather than the insurance company. They don't really do anything besides add a bunch of bullsh*t line items in Xactimate to try and "blow up" a claim. The end result is the claim extending for months and months and only the public adjuster benefiting financially, while completely screwing over the insured.
When my house burned down, a public adjuster solicited his services to me. Since I wasn't a moron, I told him to go f*ck over someone else.

A primarily white school in the heart of Bergen County in Ho-Ho-Kus, NJ. Unless you’re too snobby for a public school or get bullied, everyone that lives in HHK goes here from Kindergarten-8th grade. Girls here are decked out in ivivva leggings and headbands that their mommy bought for them and all the boys wear the infamous nike basketball shorts everyday( even in the winter even though it’s against the dress code). If you hate playing basketball or Foursquare, good luck having fun/socializing at recess. You spend the early years of your life navigating through the school trying to find your way to art class while hoping your teacher will take you through the middle school hallway as a treat for being silent when walking. The grades are small, so chances are you have been “best friends forever” with at least 45 kids in the grade by the time you reach eighth grade. It is one of the best public schools, yet barley anyone that attends is insanely good at math. Also, the dress code makes every girl that attends have a mental breakdown every morning before school because none of their new shirts from American Eagle covered their butts when they wore leggings. Although the teachers are very questionable and the school lunches are way too overpriced for three chicken fingers, you wouldn’t trade going there for anything.

being completely naked from the waist down while public speaking, hiding your genitals and bare legs behind the podium.
Fact: former governor Cuomo has been completely nude from the waist down in at least 30% of his public addresses. Making him one of the greatest public spreakers of contemporary politics as a whole. The fact you didn't notice proves he belongs in the public spreaking hall of fame.
