Well, for me being honest is already a part of a person specially if a person is so much defensive over some things or event that didn't come their way. The problem of being not honest is that the trust of the people around you will greatly be affected because not being honest is an equivalent of lying. There are times that a person is also not honest to themselves so that it gives them some kind of fake hope as we call it in order to move forward. Still, honesty is the best policy. No doubt about that.

the consequence of lying are not simple,,because it reflects also of your personality behind the fruitfulness or sincerity, sometimes the act of lying were used to resolve on that problem relationship background purposes only  (for example,, to allow people feel better about themselves, to look better in other people eyes as maintained of good relationship despite to have struggle situation in their live at the that time) but dishonestly  is not necessary used at the same time, because lying is create problem though the mistake action,,

Human beings generally renege on their promises may because we
are mortals with weak will-power.A lot of people promise and affirm
that they must keep to their words.Alas!At the fullness of time, the
not only break the promise, some go along to quarrel you and may even end
up in the police station or court proceedings.Therefore, it is always advisable to deal
with people through documented agreements, signed and sealed by notary public
and other relevant agencies in case of failure to comply.

People who have their own motives and selfish are the ones who are always dishonest. In order for them to achieve their goals they would create stuffs or even trap unto something just to have it. We should be wise on our transactions. Make sure we have documentations to support just in case we meet one not so honest person.

People might start out intending to be honest, but it is incredibly easy to deceive yourself (and often very easy to deceive others, too). People have an amazing ability to convince themselves that they are being honest, or that their lies are white or justifiable, no matter how objectively terrible their acts may be. There are a variety of reasons for this, starting with the fact that humans are social animals and social life requires lies ("Does this dress look good? Am I getting fat?"). If you're interested, there are a range of good psychological studies on cognitive dissonance, one of the effects causing people to be less than honest.

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?

In my own opinion, you can not do business today without any proof and you only trust by words. You expect that you will not deceive. It Is hard to trust right now . You do not know where or who you should trust.Even your own relatives can deceive you. But i know that there are honest people and afraid to do sin against others.

Most of people lie for their own benefit. but it happens that it is much better to tell lies than to tell the truth

People tell lies but not all the time. If our intention in lying is good, we call it a white lie. We protect ourselves or the other people. We lie because we dont want to hurt someone's feeling, for example. Not all lies are bad, it is just that we dont want to tell the truth because we want to protect something.

It's the lies have good intentions, it deserves a lot of respect. But most of the lies now serve the purpose of evil, they create many situations to scam people.

Sometimes we tell lies to other people and to ourselves because sometimes we cant handle truth and its much more easy to lie than be true to what we say or do.. There are instances where telling the truth can hurt other people especially those people we love.
People are capable of telling the truth or not. Its the weight of the truth that is why they choose to lie rather than tell the truth.

in this world a lot of variety when meeting people who behave very honestly and whether or not there is very difficult to distinguish.

an honest person will never be afraid of his speech that he is right.
but if it is not honest it is a way of talking that stammers against it.

why well in this world many people who are dishonest ??

We all lie. People lie for the sake of their love ones. They choose to  lie to someone just to protect some secret or whatsoever. White lies been very popular in this world, people think that white lies is the best thing to do to save hurting someones feeling but that action have positive and negative effect. Trust issue is one of the negative, people got trust issues after hurting. People nowadays commit lies, we did mistakes. And from that experience we should learn what's good and bad so that we can't make that same mistakes or lies again and again.

People are not generally honest because we have this so called scale of honesty. This scale ranges from white lies to a severe form of dishonesty. Because not every thing we could cope up the way we wanted to be, people do lies. But I think its not necessary on saving the world. We have to spit out what's our conditions in reality then move, do the action.

^ Thoughts in my mind is so abstract ^

We all lie. Admittedly, most of do so only occasionally. But we still all do. Yet most of us also consider ourselves honest. In his book, The (Honest) Truth about Dishonesty, Dan Ariely offers evidence that we're able to believe we're honest even though we lie or cheat by doing so only in little ways. We're therefore able to tell ourselves we're mostly honest—that is, we're only dishonest in ways that we think don't matter. Apparently this strategy works: most of us don't suffer serious cognitive dissonance over our integrity. Thus it seems we can have the best of both worlds without too much work: we can lie or cheat in little ways that place us at an advantage, but still get to view ourselves as fundamentally honest.
