      I don’t think having that attitude to somebody who is going to really do something will impede them. While having the opposite (as in “blindly trusting”) attitude to somebody who isn’t going to do anything won’t change the reality. So I don’t see how it’s killing anything.

      It’s more likely the crooked people in positions of power taking money from crooked companies lining their pockets that are killing America more than the previous OP’s cynicism. What power do we have against it? If we had any at all you’d be using it, wouldn’t you?
