Talking about trust is a subjective rather than an objective aspect. Trust is a positive, conscious and voluntary emotion. Trust is believing without worry or doubt, it is trusting despite not being in control of a future situation, even though it depends on the expected action actually occurring in the future. It also has a cultural aspect, depending on the country we are in, it is easier to be trusted or not. Germans are very distrustful compared to Latinos, for example.
“People” as you define them, are generally always on the defensive as a result of previous experiences. The common denominator of the world's population judges a mistake without counting the 99 good things a given individual has done, i.e. one mistake equals ninety-nine successes.
It is globalisation that has planted in the subconscious of individuals doubt; it is now easier and quicker to find out what is going on in the world than it was a hundred years ago. Trusting “your neighbour” has fallen into disuse.
In this sense, my dear friend @tarazkp, if you find someone who deserves your trust, after the necessary tests, take care of him, that specimen is unique, one in a million.
As with anything that a human ever says - nothing is certain.
At least of their government, which is why they use cash a lot still.
Similarly, 99% of our daily judgements get no feedback on whether we are wrong or right, which gives us a confirmation bias on the accuracy of our judgement, because we "feel" right.
In some sense yes, it is the reduction of community. However, in another sense, we are also able to verify more. Trust is a belief system, and we can trust and have our cultural expectations met, even if we are fundamentally wrong.
