Trust In Government Hits New Low

A CNN/ORC poll indicates that only 15 percent of Americans trust the government to do what is right just about always or most of the time. This is a new low. Last September that number was 25 percent. Seventy-seven percent of people questioned say they trust the federal government only some of the time, and an additional eight percent volunteer that they never trust the government to do what's right. The previous low was 17 percent in 1994. Democrats are more trusting than Republicans but about two third thirds of Democrats rarely trust the government.
