    and an...

    Economic Conservative

    You exhibit a very well-developed sense of Right and Wrong and believe in economic fairness. loc: (74, 99)


    I love how it's giving everyone that last line... I also think it overestimated how economically conservative I am. Of course, that could just be me being particularly pissed off today! According to Cinnander's test, I'm a libertarian-leaning-to-the-right, which sounds about accurate. We need government for a few things. Beyond that, it is welcome to butt out.

    Think Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin and Japanese Imperial Family pre-1945 to just name a few.

    Obligatory Wikipedia Definition: A system of government where the people have virtually no authority and the state wields absolute control of every aspect of the country, socially, financially and politically. For example a dictatorship such as the Nazi regime.

    What bothers me the most.

    "Life of an American worth a few lives of Non American" Rate 1-4(strongly disagree to strongly agree)

    I mean.. How can anyone come up such question.

    Simple, a LOT of Americans, including my stepfather to cite just one example, would agree with that statement. It's a valid question. I would love to know the aggregate answer to that poll question ie: What percentage of people chose each rating. I bet you that at least 15-20% of people strongly agree.

    A little googling found this gem...

    I've done this test before a while ago, and sure enough, it thinks I'm Libertarian again. And yes, I am very economically conservative.

    That disturbs me. A lot. And it makes me genuinely curious how the same poll would fly in Iraq (outside of the well-publicized minority that make up the extremists).

    Anyways, the test tagged me as a democrat, but I find myself constantly disagreeing with both of the major parties (but on the whole identify with Libertarians), and found most of the questions impossible to answer accurately. True of most of the political tests, TBH. There's never a "none of their damn business" option.

    Apparently that is what I am. But to be honest I find myself disagreeing with the Democrats so much that I think this poll just doesn't address enough questions. In fact, I really don't like Obama that much as a candidate, but with McCain being disliked more I guess I have to settle for the lesser of two evils.

    Meh, the political compass is by far and away the best political quiz on the Internet, but I'll give this one a go anyway:

    You are a

    Social Liberal
    (71% permissive)


    and an...

    Economic Moderate
    (41% permissive)


    You are best described as a:


    Democrat


    Yup, sounds likely to me, although I doubt many non-Americans will agree with the questions that are American bias, and thus push them towards the liberal end.
