The problem has gotten infinitely worse lately. I think the 2008 recession from a rigged economy was the first half of the problem. The NSA surveillance state uncovered by Snowden broke the last half of trust in government. This is why voters didn't revolt in 2008 or 2012 elections, but they are in 2016 elections (with Snowden's release in 2013). The wrong doing in the 2008 recession plus the illegal surveillance state combined to shatter trust in government. Evidence is seen in the Bernie Sanders voters and non-establishment republican voters in 2016.
