I think George Carlin spelled it out quite eloquently and succinctly, if a tad bluntly.

"I have certain rules I live by. My first rule: I don’t believe anything the government tells me. Sooner or later the people in this country are going to realize: the government does not give a fuck about them. The government doesn’t care about you, or your children, or your rights, or your welfare, or your safety. It simply doesn’t give a fuck about you. It’s interested in its own power. That’s the only thing, keeping it and expanding it wherever possible.”

There's a direct correlation between faith in God and CSF. The higher the faith in our Creator the higher the CSF. This is because our Creator endows each of us with the gift of discernment. Those of us who trust his infinite wisdom will rely on his greatest gift he endowed us with to protect us from a world of illusion and deceit. Those of us who don't end up placing our trust in "experts" or our own reasoning that is misinformed and easily duped by "experts."

We are witnessing, experiencing the diminished capacity of the population we live among to practice common sense. That directly correlates with the diminished population of those who have faith in God, and their own, innate discernment, that expresses itself as Common Sense.
