Exactly. I'm surprised that some of the poll bashers in this thread aren't all over this poll. As I said, everyone's for something (see this poll) until they're informed that they'll have to pay for it. As Steve said, that hasn't changed in years. Lots of people want something for nothing. I doubt it will change going forward either.
