Many have been taken care of via government programs as well. They have never learned to be self sufficient. They've never had to be. Its frightening the number of [people who have no clue about any of it. And their numbers are increasing dramatically. There is an entire subculture of those who have always existed on an income derived from someone else. They have never been independent. ]
Is it 50%? I wouldn't have thought so, but perhaps it is. The questions were probably left open-ended intentionally so as NOT to provide hard facts. That way the politicos can use the "info" and interpret it for their own benefit.
