Who do you despise more. cops, banks, or hospitals?
Banks rob us, hospitals turn us inside out then kill us, cops harass us then shoot us.
I despise the cop at the hospital checking the ATM all the time.
We can choose our banks and treat with alternative medicine (or choose our insurance)... there is our own personal choice involved with banks and hospitals - though there are, of course, exceptions. But there is no choice with cops... either you obey them blindly (and the imposed laws they uphold) or you don't obey them and suffer the consequences. And if we run into a 'bad cop' it is not like we have alternatives to the situation...
I think hospitals are the worst. Hospitals are now money making machines /production lines so you won't get any special treatment unless you have a ton of cash and are able to afford first class medical services.

Why do banks seem to prefer their customers standing in long queue at banking halls?And hospitals seem to prefer patients to seat on comfortable seats when queuing.
