No in which manners it does help you to distrust any government? Democratic governments are mostly driven by many people. And the most powerful are elected by the people. So I think there are defnitly some I do not trust personally. But the whole government I do not distrust because there are some untrustworthy. Since they need to orient their behavior on the opinions of the people. If not, they will not serve the next governance term. So I beleave that the government of a country always represents more or leaa its society. So problems in government do actually have their seeds in society.

This is like this, since governments are based and legitimized in society. Society is not legitimized by government and does not need to be.
