Brilliant Wives and the Men Who Disagree With Them

Re-taking the test in mind of my views 5 years ago, when I was young and unexperienced, scored me a 44. Hmm. QOC has certainly enhanced my ability to defend "statist" views in libertarian company. Note that the yes/no question reads "Is all government inherently evil?" Of course it isn't. Civil government was ordained by God to defend us against evil. Crooked politicians are evil.

Sidenote: why are bloggers so stupid? Last night I saw one of the recently-made blogs on blogger.com, the title of which was an eloquent "moooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo". Time was, one had to have something intelligent to say and be able to express it in detail and with logic in order to be heard. Then radio gave a national ear to anyone who sounded good. Then TV gave a national eye to anyone who looked good. Then the internet gave a voice to everyone on the planet. What's worse, good-looking morons or bad-looking morons?

At least QOC, who could do well on TV or radio, could still do well in the old newspaper realm, too.
