It depends on how much you trust or distrust that government or corporation. You might trust or distrust one government more than another or one corporation more than another. I can easily think of some governments and corporations I would trust more or less than other ones. Of course one shouldn’t completely trust or distrust any government or corporation. Choose which ones to trust carefully, hope for the best, but be prepared for the worst.
