What is the span between a low trust society and a ZERO trust society? There are a lot of variables, and it depends where one is. First off, where there is zero trust there is no longer a society. Once that branch has snapped, we're probably talking about a span of ninety-six hours. Maybe a little more, maybe a little less. Some are horrified at this prospect. Then there are others, such as myself, who relish the day. It's going to be fun watching it burn.
