Are Liberals more likely than Conservatives to think they are underpaid for what they do?

In my experience. Everyone who complains about their pay leans left. The only Liberals I've ever heard of who think they are overpaid are the super rich. I never hear Conservatives complain about pay, only taxes. I never thought I was underpaid but I have wished I could get a better paying job.

    We're fighting for higher pay and better benefits for everyone. You included.

    Not necessarily, but being driven by envy, they are much more likely to think that Conservatives are overpaid for what they do.

    One of the largest planks in liberalism is the one that tells people that they are victims.

    The fight for a higher standard of living by the human labor that enables profit driven capitalism to exist , should be constant and never ending. The DEM party has always supported the American worker. And will continue to support the 99% even as technology replaces the human workers who were also the consumers that fueled capitalism's success.

    "conservatism" died on Nov. 8 2016.

    I think a lot of solidly red areas have blue collar industries or service Industries that have been hit the hardest by legal immigrants that potentially take less pay and "take jobs from Americans."

    Some of these are the same areas where their ancestors "lost jobs" to freed slaves. We know that nationalism and xenophobia is usually tied to this kind of competition in the workforce.

    That's wouldn't be surprising, given liberals have fought for every workplace benefit we currently enjoy (weekends, overtime, no child labor, safe working places, holidays, paid time off, sick time, etc.)

    Liberals are more likely to fight for workers' rights than conservatives.

    Liberals are entitled brats who think they're too good for some jobs, while Conservatives accept the entry level positions and then EARN & WORK your way up.

    No conservatives are more likely to rant and complain about all kinds of imaginary crap, politics on the job, not being paid enough , the other guy (often a liberal they think) became supervisor, take longer toilet breaks, just the usual crap they get fired and go on unemployment for.

    Liberals are more likely to be miserable in their jobs, feel that their "genius" is underappreciated, think that others hold them back because of jealousy and are more likely to commit violence in the workplace as it dawns on them that they have failed at life.

    That's because we have college degrees and none of you finished high school.
