Not much time tonight, so how about a little topical entertainment?
The blog is named Midtopia, and I think of myself as a moderate. But am I really? I took the Political Compass test to find out.
It plots your political position on two axes, giving a more nuanced view than the traditional left-right divide.
My score on a scale that seems to go from -10 to +10:
Economic Left/Right: -1.38 (slightly left leaning)
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -3.18 (moderately Libertarian)
I guess I really am moderate -- though with a libertarian streak. And I think the nature of some of the questions means the score actually overstates my leftward tilt.
If you're interested, take the test and post your score in the comments.

Yup, they always get me on those humanm welfare issues.
Do I get rightie points for that being selfish to some extent? I just don't want to live in a country full of poor, sick, homeless people...it just screws ever'thing up. ;)
