If my results are any judge, this is a pretty lame test. It pegged me as a Disaffected and proceeded to provide details that were 90% out of line with my beliefs.

Of course, I had a hard time answering many of the questions. They should have had a neutral/don't care option.

Edited to add: Ah - I see what the problem is. They don't have a category that fits me. It appears they don't have a group for people who are economically conservative and socially liberal. That seems like a big omission.

Yep disimulo you have a point there

Disaffected, yet the views don't match, and there's no ability to separate fiscally cconservative from socially liberal.

It put me as a disaffected. What's strange is that besides the fact that I do not have a college degree (as I'm 17) and that I am "deeply cynical", most did not match up.

My characteristics in conflict with my report:
-I do not pay attention to the news. FALSE. I do pay attention to news, unless you count BS like Anna Nicole Smith as news.
-Uneducated. False. I avidly soak up history, philosophy, religion, and economics.
-Feels financial strain. False. I am rather comfortable today. It is the day after tomorrow that I am anxious about.
