What's sadder is according to an online poll, 42% think it's actually an issue.
Umm... I'd like to question the validity of any such poll.
Tell me: if someone doesn't think it's an issue, at all, how likely are they to look for things on it?
If someone does think it's an issue, how likely are they to look for things on it?
Members of which group are individually more likely to find the poll: Those who think it's an issue, or those that don't think it matters?
With my own personal opinionated answers to the above questions, I strongly suspect any such poll is going to be very highly slanted in favor of "important", regardless of how the actual poplulation in general feels about it. If it only garnered 42%.....
