TRUST GOVERNMENT ??


Only 22% Americans trust our Government.

I was shocked when I first heard this. Who did the polling? There is always a little suspicion in my mind about polls. It was Pew.

As my mind began to wander, I thought, how many of the people in government do I trust? Well most of them I don't know from Adam, and none of them personally, but of those I know well enough to have an opinion, not many would have my complete confidence.

Why do we mistrust? 1. Big money in campaigns 2. Broken promises 3. Extreme polarization, etc. – I think also our expectations were unrealistically high after the election of Barak Obama.


Why do you not trust our Government 100% ?
