It weaves a tapestry of a trail across the landscape of trust in an interesting and informative way. I like the way you have pulled in quotes and stats to state a case and then propose a solution. There is a lot of new material in here for me e.g. the MIT Sloan data on why people believe in leaders or not. The concept of \u201cethical blindness\u201d is consistent with Jon Haidt&#8217;s Moral Psychology where he argues that morality blinds and binds us.
