That said, the common man sees a two tiered system and is naturally losing confidence in government.

Generalizing.

Some do. I don't know what percentage, but the partisan conspiracy theories put forth by the MAGAs and TeaParty as their reasons for distrust are not mine.

Mine point more to the increasing disparity in wealth. Wealthy people (corporations being people too)are all too often able to finance lengthy judicial exercises that swamp 'the common man.'

Another reason is the ability of wealthy "people" to fund lobbyists PACS and agents of gerrymandering that overwhelm the 'voice' of the actual 'people.'
