I know what you mean about trust levels. Lately, America is moving towards a low-trust attitude due to the increase in crime and low trust populations. It makes a great deal of difference in your dealings with other people. For instance, in high-trust Japan, you could leave your wallet on a park bench and find it and all of its contents the next day!

Silent Majority:Independents Are More Conservative Than They're Willing To Admit

I don't think a pollster has ever reached me. With people I trust, I'm very forthcoming about my views, regardless of what the other person believes. With people I don't trust, I see no reason to be forthcoming about my views.

What I tend to do is ask questions that I know the mainstream view has trouble dealing with, but I ask them as though they're just naive questions.
