#6 I wish I could find the blog post I saw on this. The writer, digging into the original study, discovered that there actually is a second bifurcation along the line of financial success. That is, financially successful men with strong upper bodies were against redistribution, but financially unsuccessful men wtih strong upper bodies were strongly for it. Think the difference between the Independent business owner and the union man. He posted three beautiful graphs, presumably from the publication, showing those correlations.
