The real issue with trust comes when a large portion of "civilized" society is willing to violate trust on a regular basis to such degree that I can literally count on one hand (with multiple fingers left over) the people I can actually truly trust… How's trust supposed to work in a society that teaches money is more important than literally anything else, and that you should be willing to do anything (including backstab your fellow humans) to get more money (or power, fame, or whatever other greed-pit you're trying to fill), else you're just "naïve" and deserve to have your trust violated.
