Poll: Who do you trust more?

[Hayabusa Rider]

The question is flawed since you gave people a copout.

Then the question becomes effectively unanswerable. If it were to consider all variables it should say "I trust both."

I have never heard anyone say that.

Which do you trust more with your child: hungry cougars or rabid wolverines?

Honey badgers

Government: Doesn't care about saving money because they can just get more taxpayer money next year, or take on immense amounts of debt. Power-hungry, to the point that most of our governments throughout history have taken the form of dictatorships, in one way or another. (Dictatorships, in the sense of having one unelected person or group in charge of everything, whether they got there by birth or by military means.)

Companies: They simply want money, and only care about customer safety and welfare if a government agency is actively forcing compliance through random inspections. Also power-hungry, primarily as a means to the end of obtaining more money.



This question is like asking which person you'd rather have stab you in the eye with a hot nail file: Obama or Romney. Either way, it's not going to turn out well.

If i had to chose i would go Company's. Though i wouldn't and don't trust either.

At least with a Company i know what to expect. I can guess how they will act in a situation and what they are aiming for.

The Government? not always.

More? Government. Far more exposed to public scrutiny and public input(aka Elections).

Your Poll question and options do not match up. The question is one of Degree, the options are Absolute. So, I voted "I trust Government", despite that not really being the case. I trust Government more, but not completely.
