Do you still trust your Government and have high hopes for them?

That's a very good question to ask nowadays especially that we are experiencing economic crisis, social problems, among others. Trust is really important. It signifies someone's respect and optimism towards the government. What are the problems your government is facing these days? How are they coping with all those situation?

not really. seeing how things are going in this country is sad. there are us citzens can't pay for things and bills. but the ellala are getting help and the goverment want to help them more. here i am on disablty. congress gave us a 2.2 cost of living. we make just enough to pay our bills. and not have money for food or gas. so i had to go back to work just to make extra money. but our country can help others out before they help us out in thier own country. and they wont do anything about the high gas prices. i have friends who wont be able to heat their houses this winter.

For the most part, I fear I do not trust my government. At best, it can bumble a free lunch. At worst, it is a corrupt, somewhat to very evil entity and I seriously question it's motives for the 'adventure' in Iraq. * Sadly, the corporate entity has become of more value than the flesh and blood citizen. Corporations have the rights OF citizens.

Hello,Nengs! I am an Indian.I don't trust my government.It is corrupt and inefficient.It has no control over the price of essential commodities and hence the rich becoming rich and the poor becoming more poor every year.it has failed to tackle the terrorists and the law and order situation is becoming worse.Recently the Government of India had faced the no trust motion which it won by corrupt means.thanx.

There is no choice else than keeping hopes for the govenrnment. We should somehow understand the government is made up of humans like us and everyone cannot have same aim and target. But some people in system are trying to get something better for public.let's wait and watch.
