A poll conducted by Knowledge Networks found that 66 percent of the 1,100 people responding favored legalizing assisted suicide.

I’ve got a question. Since when did 66% of 1,100 morons become “the majority of Americans?” I thought we had 300 million people in this country. The math ain’t working for me.

Exponentially, the math works. A poll of 1100 Americans will have a margin of error around 3.5 - 4.0%. Even at its low end, that means 62% of Americans favor legalizing assisted suicide.

Like it or not, this one’s coming down the pike.
