Why would an average citizen feel he deserves more money or more power at work?

Years ago I was suffering through Rush Limbaugh at my Dad's house and heard a caller tell his idol that he was perfectly happy that his boss got a big raise that year and he didn't because it meant the company would do better next year and then he'd be rewarded.

I don't know if any of these people really believe this crap but they certainly feel they need to say it in the presence of their political tribesmen.
