This is a problem with all strictly co-operative games... which is why Dead of Winter is so freakin' good. The possibility - but not certainty - that someone at the table is a traitor trying to make the other players make bad decisions makes you look really suspicious if you start trying to play in a dictatorial fashion. So you have to keep it in check, because even if you're not the traitor, you don't want to end up exiled.
