        41% of people they asked! Who knows what criteria they used to get their sample set, so the number may even be higher.

          Also, do we know the specific wording? The wording of the questions around it? Those can have a significant impact on the answers.

        Rather than “admitting”, I would think that most of these people are proud of it. If the insurance companies can kill people in large numbers (and they do), and somehow that’s OK (which it shouldn’t be), then that’s the new standard (sadly), and that’s life (or death, as the case may be).
