We covered this AP-NORC poll previously HERE but focused on Americans lack of trust when it comes to government.

This is a main reason that new treaties are being drawn up.  We wrote about these new treaties HERE in an article entitled Leaked TISA Docs Reveal Secret ‘Global Constitution’...

Here’s what we explained:

TISA is one of several global trade agreements now under active negotiations. Another is the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) and a third is the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP)...

TISA, along with TPP and TTIP provide a legislative, judicial and commercial environment that will place corporations above nation-states. This is part of a trend to disenfranchise voters and make sure that democracy has less and less power to affect social structures...
