Rhetoric was studied a loooong time ago. This thing is simple. You build trust by being right, or you can use it (and perhaps wear it down) by relying on that trust. Sometimes when you use people's trust in you, you can resolve the problem using that trust as a tool, but if the problem happens anyway, you wear down your trust. A particular kind of organisation suggested that there'd be problems due to lack of fruit pickers, government said no, the organisation turned out to be right and it could be seen in the shops. A similar kind of organisation suggested that there'd be problems with haulage and transport, government said the problems would be manageable and managed, the organisation turned out to be right and it could be seen in the shops. Now a third organisation is saying the same kind of thing, this time about fuel.
