Awesome Sites: Who are you?

Thanks to Wikicommons.

We at US Democrazy spend so much time analyzing the world that we thought it would be fun to analyze ourself.  To aid in this we found some  fun sites that were interesting if not helpful.

First off we took a look at where we stood politically.  The intriguing Political Compass is a quiz which plots your stance along economic and social issues.  Whether or not it’s fully accurate it is fun to compare your results with famous politicians.

Secondly, being writers who seek to be unbiased we decided to see if we were slanted about issues ranging from race to body weight.  Luckily the whiz kids at Harvard created Project Implicit.  This test uses response time to judge biasness; believe us it is unlike any other quiz you’ll take.

Thirdly, we wondered if our high stress blogging life style may have been hurting our lifespan.  To check it out we gave Northwestern Mutual’s Longevity Game a try.  What do you know, junk food and no exercise is bad for you.

The fourth and final question we wanted to know is how we affected the planet (see we’re not purely self interested).  We used the Center for Sustainable Economy’s questionnaire to calculate our carbon footprint and learn how to reduce it.

We hope you learned something from these quizzes other than don’t listen to our suggestions.
