Why Do People Always Think They Work Harder Than Other People

I am so sick of seeing these Facebook Meme's of poor people having full fridges because people assume they get some type of Government assistance. While the middle class families have empty fridges because they work and get no help.
Here is a tip if you are working countless hours and still can't fill your fridge on a regular basis. You are not middle class, you are poor!!! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news and destroy your warped perception of reality. Just because people need some kind of help does not mean they are not working. It means they are most likely being taken advantage of by the free market which has become just that. Where they want you to work for free.
Do not make me break out a Lars Frederiksen cover of Billy Bragg where they address these false assumptions. You know what they say about assuming things. Assuming makes a jackass out of you and me.

Until we can fill everyone's fridge then I think people should redirect their anger where it belongs.

I think this coould be realted to the compensation they get for the time spent.
For example people spend the time and they don't get much return from the same. And when they spend the time in things that makes them money yet require less time. they are happy with that and they assume that things can be rather better for others.
so it is more of time vs money comparison that makes people think about others being living better life.

Like they say time is money, but as long as the job or jobs are getting done in a timely fashion someone is making money. It is just disturbed poorly and many will say unfairly.

Too many people are taken in by the tabloid propaganda - there are people seriously malnourished in the UK. Not aware of the Facebook memes but it doesn't surprise me - probably stirred up by government spin merchants.
