That elides quite a bit of history. Trust did take a hit during Vietnam and Watergate, but it fluctuated after that for a few decades and then spiked after 9/11. It was Iraq, Katrina, and 2008 that caused it to fall off the cliff.

From an International Studies Association email about whether it’s safe to travel in the United States. I don’t disagree with the legal assessment but It’s sentences like this one that make me — an institutionalist to the core — want to burn this entire motherfucker down.

 I think it's wise in this day and age, when the Supreme Court has said that people can be randomly stopped and asked for papers, that everybody should carry their papers
