This is just wrong and naive. You can be happy if a majority of people agree to this.
- dynamite-ready 2y agoAs written, possibly. Taken literally, it's full of holes. But if you're not a pedant, I essentially mean that most parents will vaccinate their children, many passengers will book flights, and a majority of the citizens in a population do respect their officials (etcetera). And I think if you were to dig deeper than this, and test that hypothesis with... well... a scientific experiment of some kind, the result would probably support it. But a good number of people will naturally question the outcome!
