Thank you Deborah. The use of “most have or most do” is a manner of speech. It imparts the notion of a large part of something, in this case society, without conducting a survey to identify and include a reliable sample of representative numbers of people who are included in a comment. If you have the time to do a survey on readers’ comments, be my guest.
And all of Jeff’s readers can and do read.
