I think it's fairly hilarious of you to posit that I might 'trust' folks to vote 'for' politicians who would balance budgets

I didn't say you did, or that your should, or that I expect you to, or thought you did; I pointed out that you don't. So your statement (apparently meant as a negative observation) that I don't trust voters (either voters intentions or effectiveness) applies right back to you.

Absolutely screaming hilarious of you to expect 'trust' to be effective!

Nice attack against a strawman. I said or implied no such thing. I said you don't have trust, not that you should, or if you did it would be well placed.
