    We Don’t Trust the Mortgage Industry — But We Trust Congress Less

    BusinessWire published this from a press release from HarrisInteractive the other day:

    Just one-third of US adults (34%) view the advertising and marketing of mortgage products as credible, with the majority (66%) viewing it as not credible. In fact, one in five adults (22%) report that they view the advertising and marketing of these products as not at all credible.

    But, while this may look as though the mortgage industry is getting blasted as the most untrustworthy, we still trust the mortgage industry more than we trust Congress. RealClearPolitics offers poll averages on how much we trust Congress.
