2. My thoughts
Libertarians are mor generally further right...though there are things in terms of social philosophy that would endear them towards the Left....but I would put the traditional, run-of-the-mill libertarian even further towards the right.

Anarchists could go a few ways. I think the economic system favored by the self-proclaimed anarchist (anarcho-capitalist, anarcho-syndicalist, etc etc) could put him at either end.

Moderates are nowhere, because the term "moderate" is so vague. Strictly for example: I can favor gun control, oppose abortion, oppose nationalized health care, and favor a weaker military....Someone else can have the exact opposite opinion....and we'd probably both be consider "moderates" based on the mix of left and right philosophies. Yet, we don't agree on a single issue.
