History

When the National Election Study began asking about trust in government in 1958, about three-quarters of Americans trusted the federal government to do the right thing almost always or most of the time. Trust in government began eroding during the 1960s, amid the escalation of the Vietnam War, and the decline continued in the 1970s with the Watergate scandal and worsening economic struggles. Confidence in government recovered in the mid-1980s before falling again in the mid-1990s. But as the economy grew in the late 1990s so too did confidence in government. Public trust reached a three-decade high shortly after the 9/11 terrorist attacks, but declined quickly thereafter. Since 2007, the share saying they can trust the government always or most of the time has not surpassed 30%.

kherson [118]

Economics

The treasure fleet voyages cost Ming China vast amounts of money and brought nil returns since they were not trade excursions but only brought back exotic novelties. As a result, the government recovered little of the cost. Moreover, China was self-sufficient and did not need anything from the Indian Ocean countries
