I'm not sure if any of you has seen this site, but its really cool and farely acqurate.

It takes no more than 5 minutes to complete, and gives you an idea where you stand on the political spectrum.

Political Compass (http://www.politicalcompass.org/questionnaire)

My compass bearing is
Economic Left/Right: -7.63
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -6.51

Basically close to the bottom left of the spectrum.

These thing always have very provacative statements that make you sayi something you want to qualify and do not agree or disagree with. I did take it though and here's my score. I was pretty near the crosspoint on the entire graph, almost dead center.

Your political compass
Economic Left/Right: 2.00
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: 0.46


You know, when the board gets slow or the topics get repetitive, that site would be a good place to go to to get some good stuff to talk about.

You are kinda liberal.
0 is middle of the road positive numbers lean conservative, negative numbers lean liberal.

I'm closest to this guy apparently:

No way, I'm glad it was posted again.

I think this test is rigged!

I'm way more liberal than my numbers indicate... or am I? :eek:

I agree. I've always thought of myself as more libertarian. I have no idea how I got my score.

I think the only way you are going to get the test to say you are "very liberal" or "very conservative" is to pick "strongly agree/disagree" for most of your answers. Most of the questions have alot of grey to them so that is why alot of us have low numbers.

I posted a graph at the top. If you are familiar with geometry, basically use the numbers you got from the test and plot them on the graph. From your numbers, you are liberal, close to being a social democrat.

And Vong is closest to this guy:

No problem with that. But when it comes to liberal, I'm as liberal as you could get. :rolleyes:

I appear to be the most anti-government person here from the results, just the combination of extreme social liberalism and moderate capitalism.
