Well. THAT sucked. It requires a street address and a cell phone. I have neither at this time. So I have no idea what I scored.

Geez.

I didn't have to do that. Maybe you clicked the wrong link. There were several there. That said it was pretty accurate for me. I'm not saying. I like to keep ya'll guessing.

Your political compass
Economic Left/Right: -3.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -1.38

I landed pretty close to Emptee, just left and south of center. Pretty surprising. I think there were likely some leading questions in the survey that carried a lot of weight. I also think the wording is somewhat slanted at times also ......... "I ALWAYS X"....... questions that I wouldn't necessarily disagree with if they were worded less absolutely.

Pretty interesting, thanks much for the political find. Now, if anyone asks me, I'll just say I'm about -3 Y/-1 X. Give them some graph paper and a pencil.

That was fun, thanks!

Now, of course, I am compelled to go back, take it again, tweak my answers to more extremes (strongly agree rather than just "agree", see how it changes.) Yah. It's a sickness.

Ah but the thing is, be honest and you'll get an accurate assessment. Can you HANDLE THE TRUTH?

Well, that was interesting, at least to me. I went back, took the test, and chose to answer only "strongly disagree" or "strongly agree". I hypothesized to myself that that would change the values quite a bit. Nah. I'm still about the same place: Economic Left/Right: -4.38
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -1.79

Not only that, I see that my previous theory of it being slanted was a bit of an overstatement. There WERE no questions "I always X"; first time through, that was my impression.

Thanks again!

I was halfway down into the Libertarian zone and slightly to the right. It said that this sort of free market ideology only feeds the military/industrial complex. But what I see happening is a government deciding to war and feeding the military industrial complex. And it's made possible by them pushing the cost down to the next generations. To me the most conservative thing that could be done is get rid of the ability to push debt down to the next generation.

Hiyah Semper! Cool quiz

Here's my score: Economic Left/Right: -0.62
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -0.36

I am pretty much in the middle of the 4 squares...here's the link to my results:

Oh well it won't let me put the link, anyway I was almost dead in the middle
where the lines meet dead center.

I thought I'd be a little more up on the Authoritarian But nope smack dab in the middle of the whole thing. Can't wait to see what everyone else scores


By the way Semper what was YOUR score?

I was Economic Left/Right: -5.75
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.90

Economic Left/Right -1.38
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.49
So I'm slightly left with a hardcore libertarian outlook. Yep, that's me alright, a Liberal and proud of it!
