I have first hand experience of those who cheat as a means to make money, unfortunately at a time when I was most vulnerable. However I believe that most people are basicly honest and if the only defence against the sharks is not to go swimming then I’ll just have to take my chances as I enjoy getting wet so much.

I think people have always been this way, we’re just more exposed to them today via the global media and reality TV.

I have the feeling that in the increasing competitive business world today behaviour standards are dropping. It is very sad because as you rightly say trust is very important. Once that trust has been broken there is no way back and instead of a little gain with the original lie you loose a lot.
