An interesting piece documenting various examples of people lying (basically doing fraud) to gain some advantage. It poses this as evidence of America not being a high trust society. There’s some truth to that, but those who have lived in other countries will know that many (most?) countries have a lot more of corruption and bribery and grifting and people breaking the rules or lying to navigate the system and gain some benefit. I personally still find America to be higher trust than all developing countries.
