Trust is a symptom and not a cause. Japan is great because Japanese are trustworthy, and a side-effect of that is being high-trust. If Greece were high-trust, there would be immediate chaos. I mean, even greater chaos than now.
Trustworthiness is a genetic thing?
Literally yes. Some genetic groupings lack the ability to intellectually comprehend abstractions.
Unironically yes.
Didn't say that. Might be, in part. But Greece and Japan also have very different cultures.
BTW, not knocking Greece. I'm pretty sure it's a nicer place to live than Germany, apart from the economy, and not just for the food.
