Interesting political test

[denisenh]

Try the test at The political compass

I am slightly northeast of Nelson Mandela, in the lower left quad.

See who shares your place on the political compass.

That was fun and I found the questions quite interesting. I pretty much fell very close to you as well, denise.

 

[MI mom of 3]

That was very interesting. I am also in the lower left quadrant. Just north of Nelson Mandela

move over MI Mom, I am right beside you.

As usual, I'm in the empty quadrant (right, libertarian)

 

[tonyswife]

I'm in the middle of the lower right quadrant. More right than left and more libertarian than authoritarian. I found the questions to be the kind of questions that require a much broader reply than agree/disagree.

 

[BuckNaked]

I'm exactly on the horizontal line, and directly underneath Tony Blair.

 

[Elwood Blues]

How'd I do???

Just right of center and on the horizontal line. Nowhere near Nelson Mandela or Saddam (or the Pope)

Economic Left/Right: 1.62
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -0.46

Another quiz at
political quiz
Its short and simple.

I am a 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.

I scored at the exact top of the seond quiz, a Libertarian. O scored 100% for Libertarian on both personal and economic issues.

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.

I was almost the exact same

 

[EsmeraldaX]

I've done this before. I always wind up in the absolute center. I understand everybody's point of view.

 

[crazyforgoofy]

I'm a liberal. Now there's a surprise.

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.
