5% of total - the moral crusaders can breathe easy once more. I don't think this number has changed significantly in all of history.
IMO, that's the 5% who are honest and don't try to pretty up with justifications. I do also believe a lot of the people who cite cost but I think a lot of the ideologues on the subject really just want free stuff but want to tell a nicer story about themselves.
