Blowin' In The Wind

Big news! The left/right distinction is an inadequate method of categorizing political beliefs! Turns out a graph of two dimensions provides more accuracy. Sure, plenty of us learned this in high school civics 15 or more years ago, but part of the joy of living in America is how old news is always new. For what it's worth, here's where I end up. I note, in comparison to the first time I took a similar test in 1987, that my economic beliefs have moved "down" while my social beliefs have stayed in exactly the same place.

Update: Grammar correction(normally not allowed, but see following clase) and let this be a warning to never read me after I've been taking antihistamines.
