Pew: For Every 10 Americans, Only 3 Trust The Government


Pew: For Every 10 Americans, Only 3 Trust The Government


WASHINGTON (CBSDC) – The Pew Research Center in Washington, D.C. has found that fewer Americans than ever trust the decisions made by the government.
Data collected from a survey taken in January of this year indicates that all demographics and partisan groups experienced an increasing lack of faith in government leadership, according to arelease posted on the Pew Research website late last week.
“However, there are disparities,” the official summary noted. “[M]ore than twice as many Hispanics as whites (44 percent vs. 20 percent) trust the federal government, and more blacks (38 percent) than whites trust the government.”

I'm amazed that so many still trust, when there is so much reason not to.

Most of those who trust the government are on the government payroll or beholding to the government in some way.
