Excerpt:

What do Congressional representatives, car salespeople and advertising practitioners have in common? They’re among the professions with the lowest perceived honesty rating, polling shows. A newly released poll from the Gallup organization asked respondents to rate the honesty and ethical standards of people in various professions across 22 fields- ranging from medical practitioners to salespeople to elected representatives. While nurses, pharmacists and doctors topped the list as the most honest, members of Congress were at the bottom, with only 10 percent of respondents giving them “very high” or “high” marks. The only profession with a lower positive honesty rate? Car salespeople – only 8 percent of people rated their honesty standards are “very high” or high. ” When it comes to ranking professions reversely- in order of the lowest perceived honesty and ethical standards, members of Congress took the top distinction.
