This is a neat site:

http://www.digitalronin.f2s.com/politicalcompass/

I took the test and am apparently far more left and far more libertarian than I thought. :Q

I started to take the test but the second page had long words and I got annoyed and closed the window.

That makes me lazy I guess.

*eyes Farawen suspiciously*

Since I've wanted to post that EXACT same thing and then forgot, I guess :shock: is in order now :mrgreen:

Ro - I also got bored on page 3 ( I have a longer attention span than you, then :P ) but to be polite I pushed through. I mean, Faraoutieawen DId go to all the trouble ;)

-4,-4. I'm a leftist libertarian!

Sounds about right, actually...

Not much of a surprise for me either. I'm pretty much bang in the middle of the lefty-libertarian square (slightly more authoritarian than Guru & Alandriel though?!).

Economic Left/Right: -5.50
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -3.54

I would have thought that my numbers would be reversed, but I guess I really do hate big business.

Hmmm....I must be voting for the wrong party.


Honestly, I always feel conflicted when it comes to voting. I always lean left when it comes to issues like the environment and human rights, but lean right when it comes to social programs. With the two-party system the US (basically), I don't have a part that fits my views unfortunately. :roll:
