I think the political test on the other thread along with thread really proof Occasionals point.

And ignore the self-selection bias. Maybe "liberals" are just more likely to post their test results publicly.
Or maybe the whole point of the other thread is that the terms liberal and conservative are insufficiently descriptive. An interesting thing that the test doesn't make clear -- some of the people who posted the most "liberal" numbers from the test are also among the most actively religious folks at Hatrack (Christian and Jewish). How does that fit into Occasional's stereotype?

Certainly the people I think of as the most conservative members of the board have not posted their scores.

Go ahead and take the second test, Jay; I think it's more accurate.
But, no, I don't think you're the most conservative person on the forum. Honestly, I don't even think you necessarily know what you actually believe.

Jay, let's stop talking in labels and get down to some specifics. What is the government's role in ensuring the accuracy of information necessary for the proper workings of a free market?
