Here are my results.




CENTRIST



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.


And, remember, I am registered Independent but vote left, so I guess it fits....

1. Liberal! PERSONAL issues Score is 90%, ECONOMIC issues Score is 20%.

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.

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.

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.

[cliffordu]

21. liberal 80/20

[DaveJ]

22. 80-20

The Draft question got me, otherwise I would have been more Liberal. I think a Draft should be necessary to combat a threat like a Totalitarian government/economy taking over our country like it is now. But apparently I'm not thinking in line with this Libertarian quiz.

[AtomicKitten]

23. Liberal. ;)

[Brundle_Fly]

24. wow right conservative 100 - 90

just kidding

left liberal 90 - 30

[Number23]

25. With you, Ruby...

Proud Centrist, square in the middle. Red dot on the left side heading towards Left Liberal.

Nice test!

[bhikkhu]

26. 100-20. It seems so obvious....

People should be free to make their choices and live their lives, but the role of government, or the reason to even have a government, is as a safety net for times of need. So the one valid governmental constraint on individuals should be the necessity of maintaining this safety net.

But no end of little side issues and things that don't fit into the test...

[IndependentDem]

27. Liberal - 80/40... But I prefer the politicalcompass.org test.

[iconicgnom]

28. Those tests are fixed by the parameters

In particular I don't like "statist: big gov't" vs "Libertarian". This's a little too similar to "Capatilist" vs "Communist" for my liking - except worse. WTF is "big gov't"? Gov't is essentially a system of regulatory bodies. The world, today, doesn't have near the system of regulatory bodies that the world needs, with a global economy and global communication system irrevocably upon us. All I know of "libertarianism" is from the self-professed libertarians that I've come in contact with, and to be frank the vast majority of those have been flakey and shallow, Jubal Harshaw clones. I doubt that the quiz accurately portrays the types.

I have no freaking idea what they mean by "liberal" vs "conservative".

For example, where is my revulsion toward torture regimes in those scales? What if the torture is done by an affiliate of Blackwater? Does that matter? Is torture worse if it's contracted out? Or better? Is torture more a "liberal" or "conservative" value? Statist or Libertarian?

In my view 21st century politics doesn't fit on that kind of scale, at all. But then, to my view 21st century politics will be led by progressive ideas, not by branding. 21st century politics will be a lot more complex, because one political group will no longer be able to claim ownership of, say, religious values, or social values, or economic values. One will say, e.g., that opposition to torture is an universal value ratified at the highest level, and be damned to people who deny it.

Sorry. I replied to wrong post.

[Selatius]

34. You'd probably feel better if you examined this political quiz.

It breaks down measurements based on how authoritarian a person is and what his economic stances are (right or left wing). Here is an example:

[Ice-9]

61. Liberal -- 80/40.

I actually thought I would end up in the libertarian camp, but maybe the "cut taxes and spending by 50%" question saved me. I'm not sure how reliable this thing is. If you think about it, it would be extraordinarily difficult to cut spending (let alone taxes) by 50% in light of the revenue that needs to be set aside just for entitlements, defense, and debt service. I'm not sure how "liberal" you really need to be to recognize that basic fact of life. Still, it's as fun little test.

[tammywammy]

63. Centrist
