Who loves you, baby?

The most recent Edelman Trust Barometer (an international measure of citizens’ trust in government, business, media, and nongovernmental organizations) showed stable and competent autocracies (China and the United Arab Emirates) at the top of the list, while contentious democracies such as the United States, the United Kingdom, Spain, and South Korea scored near the bottom (albeit above Russia). - Jonathan Haidt

The Edelman Trust Barometer is a survey conducted by the Edelman company, a communications consulting firm.
