Around the world, governments are the least trusted institution in half of the 28 countries surveyed for the Edelman Trust Barometer. In the United States, according to Pew surveys, trust in the federal government is at an all-time low, having dropped from nearly 80 percent in the 1960s to about 19 percent in 2017. Government leaders are barely credible, trusted by only 29 percent of people surveyed worldwide. And trust in the political wisdom of the American public has dropped to somewhere between 23 percent and 37 percent, depending on political affiliation. The distrusters lay the blame on everything from corruption, to eroding social values, and to the pace of technological change.
