I just took the test at...

http://www.politicalcompass.org/

It's pretty cool. You answer about 50 questions and it shows you where you stand in c comparison to historical figures.

I fell just off to the liberal side, but with a slight leaning toward the authoritarian side.

I was quite a ways off of my ol' buddy G.W., which surprised me a bit.

Anyone else wanna try?

Is it me, or are we all coming out around the same place? I think this test is rigged.

Or Molly, is it because we are all truly that close to each other soul sister!

Nah, when it comes to politics, there are quite a few issues where we are radically different.

I'm surprised too. I expected that I'd be leaning to the right.

Economic Left/Right: -4.00
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: 2.51


So I'm a "Left-Authoritarian".

I wasn't sure how to answer some of the questions because they were almost two questions in one. Part of it I agreed with, part of it, not. I don't like it when surveys do this.

Like this one for example:
" Because corporations cannot be trusted to voluntarily protect the environment, they require regulation."

Would you answer differently if that was two separate questions?

1. Corporations cannot be trusted to protect the environment
2. Corporations should have environmental regulations

Would your two answers be the same outcome as the one combined question?
Or how about:

3. SOME corporations cannot be trusted to protect the environment.

For me, the wording makes a difference on how I answer.

And this one:
The only social responsibility of a company should be to deliver a profit to its shareholders.

The word "only" changes my answer.

Should a company be responsible for delivering a profit to its shareholders? Yes
Should that be its ONLY responsibility? No

Yeah, it was a toss up on a few for me because of those types of questions as well.

Yeah, umm, I'm going to have to strongly disagree with your perception of the questions Web.

Ok, I'm throwing the test out, it's facist. No, really, I went through and answered "Strongly agree" to all the questions, and left and right were perfectly balanced, but not up and down:

Economic Left/Right: 0.00
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: 4.36
