Can I make sure Google always uses my meta description tags for snippets?

Youser from Siegen, NRW asks: "I use "description tags". Still Google search results often start with a date or alter the description snippet. Is there any way of controlling this?"
That is hurting many good sites with good desc. Now, i see many sites with good to perfect meta description tag but STILL! GOOGLE DOESN'T USE THAT!! I think GOOGLE (or any) algorithm is still far off from knowing between bad and good tags so why do this when you're not ready? Consequently, we now see all the messy description snippet for most of the results especially for foreign sites by this change. Thanks to Google.
So another words, Google gets the right to make or break your company? You know Google isn't the only "internet company" to create things online. I can't wait for the day they break.
