It’s no revelation why Barack Obama became the 44th President of the United States — People are disgusted, especially with corporate America.

According to trendwatching.com : “The current financial meltdown has led consumers to be more disgusted than ever (if that’s even possible) with greedy corporate execs who just don’t care.”

And here’s four reasons why from reputationgarage.blogspot.com :

• As few as 13 percent of all Americans are placing their trust in big business
• Only 39 percent of employees in a Watson Wyatt survey said they trusted senior leadership
• On primetime TV you are 21 times more likely to be kidnapped or murdered by a businessman than by the mob. Some three-quarters of folks out there feel companies don’t tell the truth in advertising.
• Three quarters of employees in big companies observed violations of the law or company standards in a 12-month period.
