In a matter of Trust

[Hellion]

In your own opinion,which is the less likely you would trust today

The government or

90% of society,today

With all the corruption going on,and the truth being exposed on the system today, and the rate of crime going up in different regions of the country,and the nature of it, being more grotesque than it was twenty years ago.

Are we headed for selfdestrution or what?opinions please.

[BrassFusion]

Mmm, I have more trust in 90% of private citizens than in the same percentage of government officials... is that what you mean?

[Hellion]

I am talking about as a whole.

[BrassFusion]

The government is part of our society... and our society takes part in our government....

[Steven]

are you equating distrust with fear? honest question.

[phee]

It is a bit vague... Society and Government are inseperable...

DM, do you ever feel like you might be a little paranoid, and that much of the tension in your life could be a result of cynicism? I mean, I DEFINITELY don't trust a lot of politicians, but I realize that I'm not equipped to do much of anything about that right now. And look at the Middle East, and North Korea... it could be a lot worse.
