Northwest

You advocate a large degree of economic and personal freedom. Your neighbors include folks like Ayn Rand, Jesse Ventura, Milton Friedman, and Drew Carey, and may refer to themselves as "classical liberals," "libertarians," "market liberals," "old whigs," "objectivists," "propertarians," "agorists," or "anarcho-capitalist."

I (John) answered some questions at politopia to plot my political position in a matrix that does not entrench as much as the alienating underdimensionality of liberal-to-conservative. I am the red star (ironically) in the northwest, near Drew Carey (Drew Carey?) and pretty far from Joseph. The "anarcho" bit kind of startled me, but what's a label?

If you have 6.2 minutes to spare, and if you are so inclined, take the quiz and see where it drops you and leave a comment. Maybe you'll learn a little about yourself. And maybe, just maybe, I'll learn a little bit about myself too. Perhaps we are similar...perhaps we differ. But I can tell you this my friends...if you are reading this blog then it is a safe bet that I already like you -just the way you are. Do I like you because of our similarities or because of our differences? Yes. Yes, I do.

A map of friends... there were a few more in the North and northwest, but they would only let me enter six, including myself (dani/Red).

NW with ol' Drew... I wonder if Mimi will be dropping in. Also, I TOTALLY got the Mr. Rogers reference. Oh how I use to love watching him go through factories and mailrooms and such, exposing me to the wonders of what makes the world go round.
