What's your political compass?

What weird pigeon holes you picked to stereotype us. Actually if paid enough I can evolve to another type.

hmm?

I don't particularly like the questions as I feel they require too much interpretation. I was left wondering on too many of them what the author meant when asking them, when government was or was not involved in monopolization or cartelization, why I was forced on some questions to actually advocate government interference in situations when I would prefer none, ever, and had no choice but to respond to all questions whether I felt the answers would be close enough to my own responses as I would interpret the meaning and intent of the author.etc. I'd be interested to see the results from better questions and more options.

That said, it's a better test than many and at least more questions are asked than usual.

I personally identify as a free-market anarchist.

Well your political compass numbers match up pretty closely with a free market anarchist so apparently the test isn't too far off :p

:o)
Well that's good. I still maintain my critiques though. Maybe I'll try to contact the author of the test.

I came out as a 99% centrist. I could not tell where the 1% was so I just picked the right (at random).

Your political compass

Economic Left/Right: 2.62
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -6.26

I would Have to concur with Peacock .. The corruption is far more spead than any can control and although
Most social parties do believe they're stand points. It's the government parties that are really playing for the same side Jst giving modern society the illusion of having an opinion most of the time.

(-6.5,-4.1)

Apparently, I'm Gandhi...lol.

Also, I love this:

Hey Gandhi; how's it going?

Not really any, so I chose Right Libertarian. I am Independent, but I see such corruption coming from both sides. I want less Gov. in our private lives, more regulations on Big Businesses, Freedom to marry whomever you choose, and just have the Country run Economically, and Socially as a Free World. Stop the "micromanagement" of our eating, raising families, and get the country up and running. It has never gotten back on track since 9/11.

Did you take the test? That was the whole point of the poll.

I did..but nothing really was truly indicative of my views. It isn't that "cut and dry..in my opinion.

Anarchist!

Did you take the test? I was curious about the stats from that.

It's less than 2 points in either direction. Not very definitive. I guess it shows a kind of centrism with a slight tug to the left on economics, (not much), and a slight tug towards libertarianism (probably the pot question). I suppose it's a about accurate. I shouldn't be too surprised. I answer all questions as they regard Catholic doctrine. This is what informs my life, just as say a political party may informs some elses judgements about things.

left: -13
authoritarian: 2

Economic Left/Right: -6.50
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -6.21

Every time I've taken this I've gotten slightly to the left economically and pretty far south for Libertarian.

Economic Left/Right: 8.38

Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -6.26
