Yet they are still developing countries. Maybe being a low trust environment isn't actually working in their favor and having a government you can trust to solve problems is good. A corollary: maybe working to sow distrust in the government doesn't promote the general welfare.
- mikem170 6y agoI think you have it backwards. First their government was untrustworthy, then they stopped trusting them. Not the other way around. And this is not a problem of developing countries only! Developed countries have had their governments turn on them in a surprisingly short time. It can get to the point where a people can't change their government, the government being the institution with all the money, power, and guns.
