BTW too if you read that study, it goes all over the place - the original study, that is.

Check out this gem:

53 percent of Americans believe that government
is generally too complicated
for most people to understand. In
other words, they believe that vigilance
is difficult, if not impossible.
Exactly one third of respondents
endorsed both views: that is, that
leaders can't be trusted, and government
is too complicated to understand.

Vigilance on the part of a sector of people trying to defend their jobs against 1.00 a day labour, would be almost frenetic to try to grasp the workings of the government, and probably very demoralizing...

I hope I have the right study?!
