How to tell if you’re in the mainstream of American thinking | MND: Your Daily Dose of Counter-Theory
Are you in the mainstream of American thinking? Do you have what it takes to be a member of Congress, president of the United States, reporter, pundit, K-12 teacher, college professor, or other trusted influencer or leader? Do you have the proper view of government, the economy, and other subjects?
To find out, take this simple test. Good luck!
"No statement is more unnecessary than the statement that the government should 'do something' about some issue. Politicians are going to 'do something,' whether or not something needs to be done, and regardless of whether what they do makes matters better or worse. All their incentives are to keep themselves in the public eye." - Thomas Sowell

Question though - does one really want to be in the mainstream thinking?

I don't care if I'm mainstream or not. I care about being principled.
I'm glad I failed that test with flying colors.

according to that test if you don't quite have the intelligence to wipe the drool from your lips , you are mainstream.

Actually, Oneida is now a silverware company and New Harmony failed because of a huge fire. But anyway, since the majority of Americans apparently voted Democrat in the presidential election, doesn't that make liberalism mainstream?
I do my best but I'm made of mistakes.

In the former Soviet Union, Marxism was mainstream and it collapsed.

the majority of VOTERS voted for Obamanation
liberals tend to forget that the MAJORITY do not vote because they feel they aren't represented by either party.

Good point.
I failed that test with a 0%. I guess I'm not mainstream with my "radical" conservative ideas aka having morals ;)
