That quiz was moronic, designed by our favorite discredited libertarian "sociologist" Charles Murray. (Remember "The Bell Curve"? Yeah, that guy. Shame on PBS for giving credence to him.)

The argument that if you don't eat in chain restaurants you are a member of the elite ignores the fact that chain restaurants are not nearby to inner cities, and people without a car are unlikely to visit them much.

It's a thinly disguised attack on the authenticity of educated people. Charles Murray can go fuck a goat.

I've heard it said that if the temperature of the world's oceans are fucked with enough, it could possibly be enough to halt the Atlantic conveyor and lead to cooling.

And the best part? Imagine if the United States became too cold to live in. People would start immigrating to warmer southern climates like, say, Mexico. At least, they would if the Drumpf Memorial Barrier weren't there.
