Personally I distrust the government and it is not because we have....
" very little to do with whether our safety, security, and common good are being provided for and protected."
Rather I distrust them because if the American people do not question the acts of the government and analyze their actions then the government will take advantage of the ignorance of the masses. My distrust is to keep them honest. Do not get me wrong, I love my country, but they have manipulated the American people before and I would not be surprised if they did it again.
I do see your view point on this issue and I hope you found mine helpful.
