Book I. 22 The Master said, “I do not see how a man can be acceptable who is untrustworthy in word? When a pin is missing in the yoke bar of a large cart or the collar bar of a small cart, how can the cart be expected to go?”
I honestly believe that trust is a huge issue in American politics. When a political leader does something wrong, for example, a sex scandal, the American people loose faith in them. People in politics are supposed to set an example, and we are supposed to look up to them, but if we don't trust them, then how do they expect us to follow them? We elect a leader because we trust them to take care of us, and enforce our rights. Without trust , that is not possible. The second part of the quote explains that if a small part is missing, than how can the whole thing function. This small part is trust, and if that is missing, than that person is not fit to be a leader.
