Could be true, but it wasn't in the survey I read. Its a few years old now - wish I could find a link. I guess it falls in line with less materialism, but it wasn't a political statement that you try to fashion it into.
Also, I hardly think Democrats are immune to the problems you listed nor have I ever heard a Republican get excited about suicide rates.
Sounds like you need to see the world through a less partisan lens.
The very title of this thread is "partisan" my dear.

While I love the joke, I guess I’ve never felt exploited in any of my jobs in life. From being a minimum wage worker, to being a temp, to an intern, to being a professional.
