“The evidence is overwhelming. Since the 1950s, in countries around the world, researchers have asked people, “Generally speaking, would you say that most people can be trusted, or that you can’t be too careful in dealing with people?” How people answer that simple question is associated with a host of important social markers, like crime rates and education levels. In part, that’s because if you believe most other people will obey the law and pay their taxes and help others, you will be more likely to obey the law and pay your taxes and help others.”
