  • Based on good credibility with a teacher, the student is able to "report greater likelihood of communicating with the students".
  • Also in the medical aspect, the more a patient trustes a doctor, the more likely that the patient will follow on recommendations, reveal sensitive and extreme confidential information.
  • Street credibility is how much a person is willing to believe in another person's word out in the street.

What they strongly believe in is in the idea of becoming equal , they want the American people to be able to take advantage of the same opportunities as those who are wealthy. They want the free market to be regulated for that reason , they want it to not get out of control an by get out of control, it states that the people with money don't take advantage of those who don't have money.
