I think people that are not honest are those who have done something wrong, they are covering their doings by telling lies and not being honest to other people. They are scared of the punishment they will receive.


that's right, and also why many people are not honest, it is because both of them have a lack of commitment and communication it is main cost of misunderstanding to both of them.

Can I ask why people are not honest. As in, why is it that people don't keep to their words even when they can do so? Can't I just do business with someone without signing papers and get lawyers and witnesses and still keep to my words? Can't we get trustworthy people anymore?

People became dishonest because of their intentions or motive. And sometimes case to case basis, if you want to help others something like that. And some are for self-interest or for the satisfaction of themselves.

Well for me I think nobody is honest and most people are not honest to self also.  They are just not telling you what they are really thinking. Why do you suppose that is?

Because they have experienced very little truth themselves. But that a lame excuse. One just needs to start living with it, and then it becomes absolute necessity and effortless thing! Everyone is responsible.

Sometimes people are being dishonest because of their personal interest. Life now is not easy. Earning money is hard, you need to work for it. So people will try to earn money in the easiest way.

People tends to tell lies because they're just thinking of the other person's betterment. A person tell lies for them not to hurt other person by telling the truths. There sure is a great reason why they have lied.

My Dad once told me, "tell me who you hang out with, and I'll tell you who you are." These words have resonated with me throughout my life, and i have surrounded myself with people who are honest, motivated and intelligent. but what about people who grew up with dishonest friends? is it their fault that they're dishonest as well? i am one who promotes that an individual is ultimately responsible for his or her own decisions, but i do feel that we are a product of our surroundings. peer pressure can make a weak individual do dishonest things.

Lying is not as simple as proclaiming the truth against its falsification. Everything is much more complicated. The case concerns not only the distortion or non-disclosure of facts, but also the writing of a whole set of truths, of which only the liar himself knows. It turns out that some people lie at all for no reason, while many lie very justifiably, some lie for some reason, and many invent a reason to lie. Lying is not always the reverse side of the truth. Sometimes lies are self-sufficient. If we give this question a critical examination, it turns out that lying is a complex action, the most complex aspect of the human personality. In fact, this is more than a habit, it is almost a natural feature of a person

Dishonesty is a sign of greediness but by the way not all people are not honest.  There are still honest person in our society just like for example a taxi driver who found a millions of pesos in his car left by his passenger he made an effort to look for the owner of money and without hesitant he returned it so hones was there.

Oftentimes, people are not open with their motives. Some people are seeking wealth above all else without regard to any person or cause that will be affected by their greed. As humans I believe we are wired to pursue our self-interest, but there is a point where following that desire alone can be reckless.

Also, people remember events differently. I've had times in my life where I've interpreted the complete opposite of what somebody else did. In any case, it's easy to see why contracts exist. To verify both people are on the same page and are upheld to that contract can save both people a lot of hassle.

Yes. A lot of people these days are not honest much and they are just like that by default.
Well the honest people realized that being honest doesn't really take you anywhere in the world so because of that, they turned back to their deafult settings just like everyone in the world. Blame the system that rewards dishonest people whiles honest people don't achieve anything good in the world.

People used to look for profit in everything so when they are lying to you it's probably profitable for them. Peope who lying without reasons are just stupid.

People are not honest because they fear a lot of things. Some fear being caught red handed and being guilty, some are scared of being rejected and of losing people in their lives. But still, honestly can help us know who are the people who truly loves us.

Never will the world become honest ever again. Once the seed of dishonesty is spread, it will never stop untill it burns the world

When you’re broke, you think of any way to make money. If you have to commit dishonest action to make money, then you do it because of necessity.

People who are unmotivated and want things to come easy will take the dishonesty route.

It seems some people can’t help but lie, cheat and steal their way through life. One author explores why.

because people need some evidence when they meet each other. and then when we meet a new person we can't trust them without evidence.
