> While 65 per cent of the worldwide informed public (aged 25-65, university-educated, in the top 25 per cent of household income) said they trust their institutions, only 51 per cent of the mass public (everyone else, representing 83 per cent of the total global population) said the same.

As someone who has gone from a "mass public" background to an "informed public" one, this rings true. I have definitely kept my mistrust of institutions. And it definitely rubs people from the "informed public" background the wrong way.
