Americans Don't Trust Each Other Anymore - KEEP CALM, CARRY ON but TRUST NO ONE
Posters, Tshirts and more available here
Only ONE-THIRD (33%) of Americans trust most people, according to the latest annual General Society Survey. That's the lowest on record, down from 50% trust in 1972.
The AP-GfK poll conducted last month found that Americans are suspicious of each other in everyday encounters. Less than one-third expressed a lot of trust in clerks who swipe their credit cards, drivers on the road, or people they meet when traveling. Add their own President to the list.while you're at it. Obama has the lowest favorable rating now of any president since Nixon. DO YOU TRUST THIS MAN, even if he is your president?
Some blame the decreasing social interactions in society on the trust factor , which could also account for the problems of late in Washington, where are leaders can rarely seem to come together anymore. And, it looks like no turnaround is in site, as the decreasing trust has been a continuing pattern since the survey began a half century ago.
Maybe the famous old World War II Poster should be updated to 'KEEP CALM, CARRY ON
but TRUST NO ONE'shorted to 'KEEP CALM and TRUST NO ONE.' You'll probably live a smarter and Healthier, Richer and HAPPIER LIFE doing so today.

Even more popular today, Keep Calm and Carry On was a motivational poster produced by the British government in 1939 several months before the beginning of the Second World War, intended to raise the morale of the British public in the aftermath of widely predicted mass air attacks on major cities It had only limited distribution with no public display, and thus was little known. It was rediscovered in 2000, has been re-issued by a number of private companies, and has been used as the decorative theme for a range of products. It was believed there were only two known surviving examples of the poster outside government archives[3] until a collection of 20 originals was brought in to the Antiques Roadshow in 2012 by the daughter of an ex-Royal Observer Corps member (wikipedia)
Another thing coming out of Wednesday's Benghazi hearings is that Hillary Clinton wanted to keep the US embassy open despite warnings of danger. In fact, the British and other embassies had cleared out. Benghazi Tshirts for sale
I don't usually get too political or even watch much news but I've had a little extra time being with Dad and couldn't believe all the sad, crazy stuff going on just the past month....i.e.
1)OBAMA DOESN'T RECALL MATIONAL DEBT NUMBER($16 TRILLION) - on a recent (9/12) David Letterman visit failed to answer Letterman's surprising (for him) question as to the current national debt. Either Obama is pretty ignorant or more likely he just didn't want to mention the $16 trillion figure (which is nearly double
what it was when he took office) by saying he 'didn't remember the exact number precisely.' On the other hand, as Eric Wemple points out, maybe the debt's been going up so fast he CAN'T
remember!
2) OBAMA MISSED OVER HALF OF INTELLIGENCE BRIEFINGS - It was reported in the news recently
that Obama only attended 43% of intelligence briefings with CIA and committee members. Say what you will about George W. Bush, he never or rarely missed a meeting, according to Gov. John Sununu, who was a member of said committee under Bush and couldn't recall
him ever missing one. Perhaps if Obama had attended more we would have had better security in Libya, Egypgt and other embassies to avoid the recent bloodshed.
3) 9/11/12 KILLING and LIKELY TORTURE OF US AMBASSADOR STEVENS by extremists
and killing of three other Americans in team 1,
after apparent missed intelligence on 9/11 of all days! Official administrationrationoale ( Youtube anti-Muslim video) was later changed to the cortrect terriorist explanation.
4)THE OBAMA ADMIN. AIDING EGYPT(which Obama even admits is no longer a 'friendly' country) to the tune of $1 1/2 billion while its 'Muslim Brotherhood' follower sprotest the U.S. , ostensibly as a protest of some anti-Muslim youtube film made by some
hack;the real reason is most likely the 9/11 anniversary but the US 'apologizes' (Hillary Clinton) for the insensitve movie the govt. had nothing to do with, nonetheless,
5)OBAMA NOT WANTING TO MEET WITH PRIME MINISTER NETANYAHU at UN summit, claiming he'd be 'out of town' but someone else would meet him,(first time ever an Israeli Prime Minister would not be met by the sitting US President),
6)earlier, the US (Democrats) removing 'Jeruslem' and 'God' from the Democratic party platform at the DNC and only after protests from both sides awkwardly putting them back in after a 'staged' three time vote
7) Obama makes a tepid denunciation
of the terrorist killing and torture of our ambassador to Libya (from nearby Piedmont, CA) and killing of three others the latter (largely forgotten by the press) after first issuing a statement
apologizing for the US's religious intolerance!
The killing of the Libyan ambassador was an act of war
and without better security or real plans of preventative action by the US
this sort of thing will continue. Instead of Obama/govt saying the purpetrator will be 'brought to justice' why not make sure the Libyan govenrnment and others better securethe US consulates / embassies in the future. Especially on the anniversary of 9/11
you'd think there would have been better security called for by both Libya and the US
The US is now down to one real friend in the ever crucial middle East
and we're in danger of losing Israel as Obama tries to appease both Jews andMuslims. Sometimes you can't do both, especially in times like this. Right nowIsrael needs a strong voice and help from a friend - and the US needs Israeli in the Middle East!
On the local (US) front there's a lot more sad,crazy stuff - here are just two examples:
- Are you aware that 4x (FOUR TIMES) as many people are leaving the labor force (196,000just last month per US Labor Statistics) as arejoining it? So, yes, technically unemployment may have been down a bit in August but that's not including the numbers of those leaving the labor force.
8) The OBAMA ADMIN, RAISED THE FOOD STAMP PROGRAM BY 46% or 46 million people and expanding welfare by 20% with longer deadlines - average person now goes 27 months without working- which only gives people another a reason NOT to look for work -
thus the 196,000 who stopped looking for work in August, not to
mention the burden on on the economy while we give away millions to perpetrators in the mid East. No wonder so many more people actually believe they're better off now than when
obama took office four years ago, what with all these increased handouts. Welfare and food stampsare fine IF they really lead back to work. But now they're only adding to a worseningenconomyy in ways that aren't reported, and yes, Obama is benefitting in his election bid
with newfound admirers, happy to attain the new gifts.
9) OBAMA WIPED OUT NASA SPACE PROGRAM with the stroke of a pen. HOpe you enjoyed ENDEAVOR's last hurrah, recently,
because you won't see any more space shots, trips to the moon or Mars as long s Obama is in office.
10) 'CHANGES TO GOVERNMENT CAN'T BE MADE FROM THE INSIDE,' declared Obama in a recent statement. Maybe under Obama this is true and a sad fact because that closes the door on 50% of possible change and if he can't do it from the outside , as it appears he can't, we're really in trouble
