When you put it that way I agree, but it makes me question if distrust is the disease or merely a symptom. Is the origin of so many of our political problems simply based in distrust?
- tormeh 12y agoIt's a positive feedback mechanism, but I think it can be kept under control. When it really goes to shit is when people are brought up with believing that being a total shit is just how bureaucracy/business/finance is done, then they get into those positions and they behave in the asshole way they believe is natural. Later it's on Fox News and the same kind of people there go "that's not wrong, wouldn't you do the same if you were in their place?". I think not being upset when politicians are corrupt is unacceptable behavior. I think it's both symptom and cause, basically.
