As far as I know, it is stated: In God we Trust, on the US dollar.
How can I trust this currency if I do not believe in God?

Asparagus takes two years to grow. That's from an old Dragnet show.

This is my all-time favorite Dilbert. An amazing balance of truth and humor. Perfection.

We have layered a more complex adaptive system, the global economy, on top of a foundation built on lies
Trust isn't transitive. It's as true today as it was in 1996, or 1981. What we really need is morality, the kind that puts people in JAIL for carelessness with other people's money.
That means rating agency managers need to face prison, along with the brokers and others who gamed the system with bogus data.
What you constantly saw, was people testing the bottom (we dare not do too much regulation), or these companies will:
Even the congress, who makes the laws which theoretically govern the regulators, refused to stand up for the right thing, from a regulatory perspective.
1) move overseas (they did anyway)
2) not fund my reelection campaign (guess what, you probably LOST your last election, if you didn't you'll lose a future one)
3) fund my opponent (they did anyway)
The status quo is NOT good enough.
