An interesting US study by the Pew Research Centre. It asked people questions about the poor and correlated their responses with their political stance. As is indicated in the graphic below, the conservatives thought the poor were bludgers sucking money off the gov welfare teat, whilst those politically left thought that the poor were in an unfortunate place in their lives and needed help. In short, lefties were compassionate whilst hard line conservatives weren't.
