My employer required me to get mine (every employee, not just me). They paid for it, so I’m not complaining. My wife also decided to get hers as well, and then trump dropped the voter identification bullshit EO. What timing.
That actually surprises me as well. I’m impressed.
However what you presented are statistics for American citizens.
If you were to include the roughly 3 percent of people living in the USA that are undocumented, that pushes it below the 51 percent “most people” number. those 12 million people may or may not have a valid passport.
As a side point, the actual number of undocumented residents is hard to pin down. 3 percent is an estimate, but still a significant number.
“Most” people do. 51%. I thought it would be lower, too.
