Its kind of like having a divorce rate that mirrors a 50% ratio. It doesn't necessarily mean half of everyone's marriage will fail... there's a lot of multiples. Even with that, there's a ton of poor decisions, but also a substantial amount of cases where there's reasonable circumstances.

In my own anecdotal conversation we're talking about peolpe that have jobs that make above the median Canadian household income.
The Globe and Mail did a huge research project into abortion and the demographics behind it last summer. I don't have a link, but one thing that they were trying to hammer home is that it's so wide spread that it essentially is common in all demographic classes (Of course with overrepresentation from the expected groups, but a wide distribution non the less).
