Status-Q

[Original Link] This article is about our inability to leave work behind when we go on holiday, but I was strcuk by the assertion that “less than 30 percent of Americans have a passport”.

This struck me as shocking initially, but I suppose a fair comparison here is asking not how many people in the UK have left their country, but asking how many Europeans have left their continent. I suspect the figure might be lower.
