Sweden used to have a very high trust rating until very recently, too. If you watch some old movies, you can see very lax airport security. How times change.

Sweden used to have a very high trust rating until very recently, too. If you watch some old movies, you can see very lax airport security. How times change. How did we end up trust each other so little ? What happened ? Is it really inevitable ? I don't think all change is progress. For example, some ancient Greek cities like Athens were more progressive on gay rights and sexuality.
