    They’ll end up, after a lot of drama, with the same formula they use every time they have a trifecta: take away health care and food assistance from low income families and use the money to fund tax cuts for their donors.

      I was thinking more along the lines of picking up the clarinet again.

      I was only joking

        Arguably less annoying to listen to than politicians, but you have to understand that that's a rather low bar.

                          I was one little square away from center, in the left/libertarian direction. I found most of the questions to be too simplistic to indicate much beyond which tribe one’s visceral reactions align best with.

                          Education is extremely important.

                                  @Catseye3 you make it sound a lot worse that way. I suppose it's slightly better than being in the Pink Club.

                                          I feel like I'm out of step with pretty much all parties. The Republicans/British Conservatives are a
                                          truly odious bunch, and the Democrats/Labour Party are by-and-large idiots or just pander to various fringe nutters. At the last British election I found myself hoping that both leaders would somehow fall into an open sewer together.

                                          What to do?

                                          Monarchy?

                                          Honestly, let's just bring back class systems, village feudalism, and primogeniture, I don't care at this point.
