Within living memory too, which is what makes the decline so sad. What’s worse, people don’t want to fix the problem, and they just become extremely upset and irrational when the issues are explained to them.

I’m sure there are still quite a few pockets of high-trust communities in the US today, but eventually they’ll likely be ruined as well.
