Do you live in a bubble?
Are you insulated from the working class's mainstream culture in thought and history? Let's see who we have here.
I got a 45, which seems about right in the summary. I figured my score would be higher given where I grew up. If I changed one answer about my father's job, it would rise to 52 (he was a manager, but in very blue collar jobs). However, I answered the questions strictly. http://www.pbs.org/newshour/making-s...bble-a-quiz-2/ |

51. Think I got hit hard because I don't watch any of the stupid TV shows and haven't seen any of the stupid movies or eat at any of the lame restaurants they listed.

I go to work from 3am to 3pm or 5pm or 7pm I never know if I'm going get off on time. I guess that's why they call me the working man? |

Scored a 20 and also suspect a big chunk of that was from having been to Branson before.

So I guess this is the liberal elite trying to figure out where they went wrong?

I scored 50
Scoring You got 50 points. The higher your score, the thinner your bubble. The lower, the more insulated you might be from mainstream American culture. See below for scores Charles Murray would expect you to get based on the following descriptions. 48–99: A lifelong resident of a working-class neighborhood with average television and movie going habits. Typical: 77. 42–100: A first-generation middle-class person with working-class parents and average television and movie going habits. Typical: 66. 11–80: A first-generation upper-middle-class person with middle-class parents. Typical: 33. 0–43: A second-generation (or more) upper-middle-class person who has made a point of getting out a lot. Typical: 9. 0–20: A second-generation (or more) upper-middle-class person with the television and movie going habits of the upper middle class. Typical: 2. Not sure what that is supposed to tell me, but I am a country hick. I really dont fit any of the descriptions they post here. |
