How Smart Are Liberals?

We refer readers to a December 2008 study of 4835 respondents by Zeljka Buturovic, of Columbia University, who is a research associate at Zogby International, and Daniel Klein, a professor at George Mason University.

The results: The study found that respondents who tend to be liberal also tend to score lower on basic, or what can be called Economics 101 tests.

Because this is highly controversial for those whose politics lean leftward, I suggest you go to the original source. Go to Econ Journal Watch, at http://econjwatch.org for more details.

As for me, the study confirms what I have found to be true from personal experience.
