Okay, I'm bored again. My wife and I just had a great conversation on our beliefs regarding government. I found myself to lean towards being a social capitalist. My wife is a unique mix. Where do you think you fall?

Perhaps you could define the terms a little more, CL. What is a social capitalist?

I lean towards having a sage & kind dictator in control (a philosopher king). But it always gets messy when they die.

Interesting! I have heard that before, that a wise and benevolent dictator was the best form of government. But you are also right in that the transfer of power could be messy.

I'm thinking I am a social capitalist, if that means a free market with some regulations and safety nets.

Political beliefs are not even in my top ten for "what type of person I am".

Do you mean social democrat by that? Anyhow, I put socialist even though I err somewhere between socialism and liberalism.
