    The Political Compass

    With all these labels being tossed around in regards to political affiliaitons, I thought it would be nice to actually look further into the political views of our fellow members.

    I'm sure some people have taken this before, as have I, but I figure it's about time to bring it up again. Take the test and please don't forget to vote in the poll after taking the test, based on the following chart:




    To post my results I had to do an ALT+Print Screen, so you can do that too if you want, just try not to make the image huge.

    My Political Compass:
    Economic Left/Right: 0.63
    Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.56

    I've taken this test twice, and I've never scored so economically left.

    I have to ask my friend where she got this one test where it acutally tells you what you are on a similar graph. I thought the test was much better.

    Neither liberal nor conservative:

    Well:
    Left/Right: -0.38
    Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.62

    Barely liberal.

    EDIT: *adds attachment*

    *shrugs* I'm becoming a little more liberal, and my family is mostly conservative.

    Apparently, I have been declared banished.

    Last time I took it, in the fall, I was -2 something economic, -8 something social.

    Your political compass
    Economic Left/Right: -1.00
    Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: 1.74

    Some of the questions were too vague...they required more explanation. I tend to be more conservative most of the time...but I do have some liberal tendencies on some issues.

    EDIT: Here is the other one.

    Too lazy to get the stats/pic so lets just say I'm pretty close to Ghandi.

    little to the left, little to the top.

    with the lack of a 'I dont' really care' button, that's about as close as I guess I'd get to being neutral.

    I personally find this quiz easier.
    http://www.theadvocates.org/quiz.html

    My score is Libertarian.
    Your PERSONAL issues Score is 60%.
    Your ECONOMIC issues Score is 90%.
