    Exclamation Percentage of US citizens trusting the US government over time



    Figure 1  Percentage of US citizens trusting the US government over time. Entries are the weighted percentage of ANES face-to-face respondents saying that they trust the government most or all of the time. In 2008 and 2012, the ANES split sampled a new version of the question along with the original (red line), and in 2016, they carried the new question (blue line) only. The results show that the new question yields about 6–7% fewer trusting respondents than the old question. The original question is: How much of the time do you think you can trust the government in Washington to do what is right—just about always, most of the time, or only some of the time (with “never” coded if volunteered)? The new question is: How much of the time do you think you can trust the federal government in Washington to make decisions in a fair way—always, most of the time, about half of the time, some of the time (in 2012–2016; once in a while in 2008), or never?

    Yet 99% of the people continue to wear face diapers and anxiously awaiting the miracle "vaccine". Even after being presented information on Bill Gates, Sustainable Development and population control, and the millions of of negatively affected in India, Africa, the exponential INCREASE in Autism and other in America, PREP Act immunity and animal testing no longer being done.

    Polls. Yeah. Riiiiiiiiiiiight.

    Now we just need those people to start disobeying mask orders and we might be able to get somewhere.

    I agree. Just going by the percentage of diaper faces indicates that the covidiots trust Uncle Sugar.

    Mistrust and fear can overlap. Mistrust of government can manifest itself in wearing mask out of fear (losing business license, getting SWATed, whatever).

    They don't trust it, but see it as an ATM.

    We're being governed ruled by a geriatric Alzheimer patient/puppet whose strings are being pulled by an elitist oligarchy who believe they can manage the world... imagine the utter maniacal, sociopathic hubris!
