In no other first world nations have I seen this on a regular basis. Americans generally don't trust their own government. Just look to the second amendment for proof of this mistrust.
Maybe this mistrust/hatred/bitterness has to do with the fact that the goverment kills it's own citizens?

I see the same feelings in Canada ie. mistrust/hatred/ bitterness. That's why we have an election every other year it seems. Our gov't is never in power long enough to kill us.
