Chart: Public trust in Gov’t near historic low

By Taxpayers Association of Oregon Foundation,

Public trust in government is near historic lows according to the PEW Research Center.

Also, at the same time as the falling trust has been increasing government expenditures and increasing government regulations.

During that period of lost trust there has been also thousands of new government programs and costly government handouts.

This is why: Government does too much, when it should be focused on doing what it does better.
