Don't be afraid. Take this quiz. It is accurate and uses only single issue questions (unlike others posted on other threads that give choices with no answer for many participants). Longer versions of the same quiz have been used over the years, but the results have tended to be the same for participants:



Find your political position.

my results:


Your PERSONAL issues Score is 100%.
Your ECONOMIC issues Score is 100%.



ACCORDING TO YOUR ANSWERS,

The political group that
agrees with you most is...

.

LIBERTARIAN

LIBERTARIANS support maximum liberty in both personal and

economic matters. They advocate a much smaller government; one

that is limited to protecting individuals from coercion and violence.

Libertarians tend to embrace individual responsibility, oppose

government bureaucracy and taxes, promote private charity, tolerate

diverse lifestyles, support the free market, and defend civil liberties.

The RED DOT on the Chart shows where you fit on the political map.

I took the test for:

Ron Paul: Libertarian

Your PERSONAL issues Score is 100%.
Your ECONOMIC issues Score is 100%.


Huckabee: Statist

Your PERSONAL issues Score is 20%.
Your ECONOMIC issues Score is 30%.


Hillary: Liberal

Your PERSONAL issues Score is 60%.
Your ECONOMIC issues Score is 10%.


Giulinani: Statist

Your PERSONAL issues Score is 20%.
Your ECONOMIC issues Score is 40%.

McCain: Centrist

Your PERSONAL issues Score is 30%.
Your ECONOMIC issues Score is 40%.

Obama: Liberal

Your PERSONAL issues Score is 60%.
Your ECONOMIC issues Score is 20%.


So, the test seems to work. I did the candidate tests quickly using my recollection and feeling about where these people actually stand. You might get different results.

Woo-hoo! I'm a Liberal. (I'm uncomfortable with that label because it shares too many letters with the L(l)ibertarians.)

LIBERALS usually embrace freedom of choice in personal

matters, but tend to support significant government control of the

economy. They generally support a government-funded "safety net"
to help the disadvantaged, and advocate strict regulation

of business. Liberals tend to favor environmental regulations,

defend civil liberties and free expression, support government action

to promote equality, and tolerate diverse lifestyles.

Your PERSONAL issues Score is 70%.
Your ECONOMIC issues Score is 20%.

It isn't that I want a Nanny State. That's for wimps. I want to be out-right adopted by the government. Nowhere Man on another thread said he thought maybe each person should have a representative. I think that's just about right. If my math is correct, that would mean 50% of the population would work for the government. Bingo! I want my government rep to move into a tent pitched in the back yard and spend his/her (I'm an equal opportunity kind of guy) day dealing with my relations with the government.

PS: I would be more than happy to drive the Libertarians to the Canadian border. You can revolutionize Newfuckin'foundland all you want. Leave my home alone.

Surprise, surprise, I'm a liberal. I was 80/40, though the "National ID card" question is vague, or I should say most vague. Does it mean a drivers/nondrivers license card? Does it mean the proposed "National ID card" that was talked about a few years ago?

The best part is the "best score" of 100% represents the libertarian ideal. And, oh ho, it's a libertarian site.

CENTRISTS espouse a "middle ground" regarding government

control of the economy and personal behavior. Depending on

the issue, they sometimes favor government intervention

and sometimes support individual freedom of choice.

Centrists pride themselves on keeping an open mind,

tend to oppose "political extremes," and emphasize what

they describe as "practical" solutions to problems.

[Gopher]

Centrist. Leaning to the left on the chart. Relatively speaking, I remain on Dave's ESL Cafe's right-wing, however.

[Big_Bird]

[Tiger Beer]

Liberal and Libertarian for me.

[Captain Corea]

[VanIslander]

Dang, I wanted in the centrist box!

I'm close to the box but in the Liberal zone not far from the Libertarian zone.

[CasperTheFriendlyGhost]

What a lame, little test.

[The Hammer]

100% Hard core infidel was my score.

[Kuros]

The test is biased towards a Libertarian result.

Economic 80%
Personal 90%
