Who we say we trust this is commentary from James A.
Speaker A:Brown.
Speaker A:We're at the point where we trust the mom and pop running the diner down the street more than the people who run our country.
Speaker A:Gallup asked Americans which institutions they trust a great deal or quite a lot, and small businesses came out on top.
Speaker A:About 70% of us do.
Speaker A:That's more than the military, more than science, way more than Congress.
Speaker A:We say we don't trust institutions anymore, but that's not quite true.
Speaker A:Instead, we're putting our faith in the people who show up, who fix things, who keep the place running even when no one is watching.
Speaker A:No, we don't need a hero.
Speaker A:We just want someone who gets the order right and doesn't lie about it.
Speaker A:What do you think and who do you trust and why?
Speaker A:Let me know in the comments and check out more@jamesabrown.net on that note, I'm James A.
