conservatives are happier and it is because they have theirs and they don’t care if everyone else is poor and downtrodden.

Conservatives are grateful for what they have and are content. Leftists are ungrateful for all they have and envy their neighbors. Leftists believe they cannot ever be fully happy until they knock the Joneses down to size.

Envy is very socially unacceptable so they wrap it in something that is socially acceptable: caring for the poor. Their real motive is pure evil: to take or destroy the objects of their envy.

A great portion of the atrocities committed in history have been by people who seek some version of utopia. Every time you hear someone who seeks power promising to use government to make it all better for everyone, BEWARE!
