Those are sone big gaps

OK, not even sure where to begin with this one! But here's an attempt at a deeper dive at understanding why conservatives are so much happier than liberals. Mostly looking at how persistent the gap is in survey data rather than extrapolating too much. https://t.co/qV59d3kxuJ

tl;dr -

It's a real divide and seems to have gotten worse since ~2012.

Likely some of it is genetic, including predisposition to mental health issues.

Conservativism (and religion) probably help people respond to adversity and continue to be happy.

Many liberal ideologies likely exacerbate anxiety. The increase in these ideologies may explain changes since 2012.
