Am I an outlier on this list in my mistrust of public officials (even if we
might disagree on which officials to trust or mistrust) or do I describe a
generally-shared perception of where we are right now in our political culture?
I can only speak for myself of course, but Sandy, in my view, is absolutely
right about distrusting public officials in contemporary political culture.
But for me the epiphany came in the late sixties. (Yes, I did once trust
public officials.)
Do those born in the sixties have seventies have any lesser reason
to distrust public officials? I can't imagine why not?
