Thank you, cyn. I wanted to come back and at least address the OP since I contributed to the thread in such a trite fashion.
But I don't "trust" either of them and anyone would be a fool to do so. Thus the question of who I trust "more" is like asking me: Who do you trust more, Ted Bundy or John Wayne Gacy?
That's not to say that there are not individuals in both government and business who I do trust. Just that the natures of business and government (two-party or not) are largely synonymous - to persuade, to proliferate cash flow, and to conform into inaccessible and efficient beasts. Not only do I not trust them, sometimes I despise them.
