can i get fries with that?

It occurred to me a couple weeks ago that the more economics and business classes I take, the more I become economically conservative. In the light of the upcoming elections, I decided to take a test to prove it:

You are a

Social Liberal
(61% permissive)

and an…

Economic Conservative
(61% permissive)

You are best described as a:

Centrist

You exhibit a very well-developed sense of Right and Wrong and believe in economic fairness.

The OkCupid! Politics Test

So yup, I’m definitely bored. And I’m sick of all the political ads on television. Honestly, I can’t remember the last time I saw a Burger King commercial. Literally 75% of the commercials are political ads. Worse is the fact that I’m not registered in Maryland, so none of these ads pertain to me, and I’m not close enough to PA to be following those races, so I’m not voting in the Pennsylvania elections. Okay, so I could follow the PA races if I really cared enough… but I don’t. Sadly I’ve become kind of apathetic since the presidential election. It’s hard not to get stuck in the rut of “well it doesn’t directly affect me, and there’s nothing I can do to change it anyway.” I feel sometimes like I have too many other “more important” (i put that in quotes, because it’s not really more important) things to worry about.

And now I feel vaguely tired. And sick to my stomach.
