What share of jobs in the U.S. do you think make a meaningful contribution to the world? (% of U.S. adult citizens)

Note: Views on respondents' own jobs comes from the question, "Do you think that your job is or is not making a meaningful contribution to the world?" which was asked only of Americans with jobs.
