Along this line, I find it interesting that generally speaking, those of a more liberal bent are more likely to be aware of and worried about all sorts of corporate and government malfeasance, very untrusting of organizations with power, and yet their solutions generally tend towards rectifying this by giving more power to government. As if people in government are somehow more moral and immune to abuse of power.
Conversely, conservatives tend to be against bigger government, but also tend to be more likely to trust those who have power. Kind of an interesting dichotomy in my mind.
