Seriously. Why would you need a machine to tell you your political views?

Well, LIBS might need to be told. They like being told what and how to think.

Fathom the hypocrisy of a government that requires every citizen to prove they are insured... but not everyone must prove they are a citizen

Err, maybe not. Whatever. But I guess you don't know enough about science & psychology to read the article & have your own opinion based solely on the content...

Political disputes ruin family reunions, scuttle policy initiatives, and spur violence and even terrorism. We summarize recent research indicating that the source of political differences can be found in biologically instantiated and often subthreshold predispositions as reflected in physiological, cognitive, and neural patterns that incline some people toward innovation and others toward conservatism. These findings suggest the need to revise traditional views that maintain that political opinions are the product of rational, conscious, socialized thought.

So, this study seems to answer many questions for me. I would surmise the 'negativity bias' was quite useful in earlier, more violent times, and that the reverse is a more recently (Y'know, thousands of years back) developed genetic trait.
