The survey this is taken from points out all professions have seen their reputation for honesty decline. Interesting to see it was always pretty low though.

I found it more interesting that almost nobody trusts politicians, advertisers, or lawyers yet in real life it seems most of people believe them just fine. Politicians get millions of votes, people buy products based on the ads they see, and people pay huge sums of money for legal advice.
