According to a survey conducted by the Canadian Tourist Board, only 34% of Americans aged 18 and over possess a passport.

I have heard this before and in easy to understand statistics rounded up I believe 30% have a passport but only 10% actually use it,.

I dont have one, whats your point? I was born here, why would I need one? I aint goin nowhere, America has many problems to resolve right here at home but I wouldnt live anywhere else! As far as these little barbaric countries who insist on killing themselves and everyone else, I say give them a choice, either become civilized or we push the friggin button! Killem all and let God sortem out! We need to stop kissing *** in this country and in the rest of the world before we lose what power we have left!

possible I have traveled all over the world and have never owned a passport. I guess I just get through customs on my good looks or military orders. Never been able to figure out which one.

Well I would believe that 70% wouldnt know what passports are for.
(there's countries OTHER than the U.S. of A??)

Likely....after all, if you only get 10 days a year holiday, and have family all over the US, its rare that you will spend your entire years worth of holiday for a week in Europe or elsewhere!

Probably. America is so big that I guess they have no need to leave the country. If they want a mountain/beach/city/country holiday they just go to another state.

Its less than that, it about 15-20%.

I would imagine so.
There are a lot of americans that are not even aware of any other country outside the U.S.

You did not need one for Mexico, Canada, or Caribean cruises until recently. I think this percentage will change.
