Faith in the U.S. Supreme Court has taken a hit. Confidence in government as a whole, the nation's medical system, and its criminal justice system are all on the decline. In the past five decades, there has only been one other year, 2015, where poll participants' confidence in the Supreme Court was below 60 percent. Just 40 percent approve of the way the Supreme Court is doing its job, the poll shows. In this photo, the U.S. Supreme Court is seen in Washington, D.C., on Jan. 31, 2017.
