I was deemed a left social libertarian (-5.38, -5.86), scored -6.3 on the foreign policy scale (anti-war), and scored -9.4 on the cultural scale (liberal). Generally, this appeared to place me at a position on the chat four points more libertarian than the U.S. Democratic, U.K. Labour, and Canadian New Democratic Parties. A party could not be found closer aligned than the GPUSA but the result I received was still within the Democratic spread.

Vosem Chart Locator (United States version)

Liberal (100%), New Labour (75%), Anarcho-Syndicalist (67%), Totalitarian (65%), Libertarian (39%), Traditional Societies (37%), Authoritarian (37%), Conservative (5%).



My #1 is: Green
My #2 is: Social Democrat
My #3 is: Social Liberal
My #4 is: Classical Socialist
My #5 is: Communist



My #1 is: Welfare Liberal (Socialist, Elitist, Modernist, Individualist)

Based on your answers, you are a strong supporter of a "planned society."

Highest ranking dimension: Big Government
Second highest ranking dimension: Wide Focus

Also, somewhat more democratic, individualistic, and ecocentric than autocratic, collectivist, and human-centric; exactly balanced between "literalist" and "rationalist."



46 Keynesian, 38 Chicago, and 8 Austrian

You know some Keynesian and Neoclassical economics, but are committed to neither the Keynesian or Chicago School. You're no radical . . . you have just enough interest in economics to be dangerous. At least you retained some, though, and have a working knowledge on which to build. Some of your thoughts are a bit inconsistent, though, so you probably are more of a practical thinker, just using what you think makes sense, or is most effective to the needs of the day. Don't argue with Socialists or Fascists, you're not equipped yet, but you can explain some basic things to a younger relative who may be asking why the market performs as it does.



You answered 30 out of 33 correctly — 90.91 %
Average score for this quiz during January: 73.7%



Global Kumbaya: -4 traditional, 12 liberties, -6 capitalist, -4 isolationist and 2 populist!

Where this country went wrong was in thinking we could do anything all by ourselves -- as a nation or as individuals. What we need is a resurgence of the cooperative spirit, of concern for human rights and the well-being of our fellow man, of the heights that a person's potential can reach when it's properly nourished. It's time to combine our energies into a rising tide that lifts all boats, at home and abroad. Yes, we can!

anesi.com

On an "F Scale" gauging susceptibility to authoritarian influences, I scored as a "whining rotter" at 1.47 - well below the score of 3.84, which was the average score of an American when the study was first conducted in 1950.


politics.beasts.org

Received the coordinates (-9.8753, 2.9002), indicating social and economic leftism somewhere in the ballpark of Old Labour in Britain, in addition to a notable leaning towards pragmatism - in this quiz characterized as positions which are utilitarian, atheistic, and generally in opposition to alternatives that are purely idealistic. My closest match on the chart was Ken Livingstone, who evidently was the first mayor of London.


My opinion about quizzes like this in general is rather mixed. More often than not I can strongly relate to but do not directly identify with the labels assigned to me. Terms and categories I associate with tend to be runners-up to, rather than top results, provided in the quizzes where multiple results are offered in order of matching percentage. It is also rather curious how results get skewed by my responses when I fancy achieving a socialist-minded goal via capitalist means or when I am sorted as libertarian when it only fits on some matters.

For the sake of comparison and contrast I most strongly identify as a social democrat.

That makes you extremely progressive.

The average score for Americans is 209.5.

Conservative/Progressive score: 12

You are a social progressive. You generally consider yourself a humanist first. You probably think that religion and patriotism go too far in society. You probably consider yourself to be a citizen of Earth first rather than a citizen of your country.

Capitalist Purist/Social Capitalist score: 9

You're a Social Capitalist, you think that, left to its own, Capitalism leaves a lot of people behind. You think that Health Care should be free to all, that the minimum wage should be raised, and that the government should provide jobs to all that are capable of having them. You likely hated the Bush tax cuts, and believe that the middle class has gotten poorer, and the rich have gotten richer over the past several years. The far extreme of social capitalism is socialism.

Libertarian/Authoritarian score: 2

You are libertarian. You think that the government is making way too many unnecessary laws that are taking away our innate rights. You believe that the government's job is primarily to protect people from harming other people, but after that they should mind their own business, and if we give the government too much power in controlling our lives, it can lead to fascism.

Pacifist/Militarist score: 3

You're a Pacifist. You are angered that the United States thinks it should dominate the world through its military force. You think that the only time war is necessary is when we are in direct danger of being attacked. You also believe the US spends way too much of its money on defense, as we can practically cut it in half and still easily defend ourselves, and use that money to fix all our economic problems.

Overall, you would most likely fit into the category of Hardcore Democrat

The second and fourth category descriptions are off base. I've settled into a vague middle ground between social democracy and market socialism, and I think the nation should only make war to retaliate against an enemy first strike, honor treaty obligations, or engage in peacekeeping and bring humanitarian relief to lands whose peoples request external assistance. Also, increasingly as of late, I do not really identify as a Democrat so much as an independent who happens to have no other candidates to get excited about.

Didn't really understand these two:

1. The state should concentrate on the core areas safety and justice
^ Libertarianish government should only concentrate on law/courts?

2. It would be good for the public authorities to pay their debts no longer.
^ Not really sure - it would be good for the government to pay its debts no longer?

The way I read into it was that the first question referenced was about whether the state ought to go to great lengths to emphasize national security concerns and be "tough on crime," while the second seemed to ask whether the government should continue paying down debts to the IMF and/or individual countries, which would imply austerity measures are preferred to letting debts incrementally compound in their interest. Favoring an end to debt payments (or less drastically making payments late) might be considered a form of national protest against exploitation by foreign interests and/or a testament to valuing the immediate needs of ones people more so than being a great partner in business for other states and global financial institutions.

Uh, what? Whoever thought that "theocratic socialism" was a theoretically thinkable concept (or rather, that whatever thinkable concept he had in mind could be semi-accurately described so) clearly doesn't know his own ass from a random elbow in China.

I figured it may have been a reference to positions such as Christian socialism, Islamic socialism, labour Zionism, etc. where sacred scriptures and traditional customs give political inspiration for valuing economic equality, at least some perceived facets of social justice, and/or public control of the means of production. These are not ideologies Marxists or most non-Marxisant socialists in the West would consider truly socialist, ya, but that does not stop folks who are on the Religious Left from wanting variations of it to call their own.

Vous vous situez à gauche.

Les partis dont vous êtes le plus proche (dans l'ordre):

1. le Parti de Gauche (PG), de Jean-Luc Mélenchon

Jean-Luc Mélenchon est le candidat du Front de Gauche, au sein duquel se sont regroupés le PCF, le Parti de Gauche, et le parti Gauche Unitaire.

Et, dans une moindre mesure:

2. le Parti Socialiste (l'aile gauche du Parti Socialiste), mais vous êtes plus ouvert sur les questions liées à l'évolution des moeurs. François Hollande est le candidat du Parti Socialiste.


Le(s) parti(s) qui vien(nen)t ensuite:

3. Europe Ecologie - les Verts, mais vous ne partagez pas la même opinion sur l'importance de la responsabilité personnelle des gens. La candidate d'EE-LV à l'élection présidentielle est l'ancienne juge d'instruction Eva Joly.

http://marketliberal.org/test/

Social: 80%, Economic: 40%

"Liberal"

http://www.quiz2d.com/quiz/



You want government out of your personal life, at least to some degree. But you want more government in your economic life. Politically, you appear to be a solid Democrat, though you might also find the Green Party appealing. Approximately 3% of the takers of this quiz scored in this area, 18% for all liberals outside the centrist circle.

You are an anarcho-capitalist. 0 percent of the test participators are in the same category and 12 percent are more extremist than you.

what is 12 % of zero?

Can't divide by zero Wink
It's not dividing *by* zero. It's multiplying zero by a fraction. Tongue

I was reading it as though, "12 percent are more extremist than you" applied to all participants in the quiz - not just the <1% of people who were categorized as anarcho-capitalists in their results.

Bennites: Bennites generally believe in a republican system of governance in Britain and an elected/the abolition of the Lords. (100%)        
   
Socialist Campaign Group: This group is on the hard-left of the party, and is deeply opposed to New Labour. (100%)       
   
Blairites: Blairites support the introduction of quasi-markets into public services, and are noted for having an Atlanticist foreign policy. Blairites are criticized by some for not being socialist enough whilst in government. (72%)       
   
Brownite: The main difference between Blairites and Brownites is tribal, and stems from the 1994 leadership election. There are ideological differences as well, as Brownites are less critical of the unions, are opposed to private sector interference in public services and are more socially liberal than Blairites. (58%)       
   
Moderates: Moderates are more economically right-wing than the SCG and the Bennites, but are as socially progressive. (0%)

It’s no secret that you’re a liberal. You’re strict when it comes to regulating big business, but lenient when it comes to individual freedoms. The right to marry whom you want; the right of a woman to choose what she does with her body; the right to privacy; and the right to free health care are all freedoms you’re willing to fight passionately for. You’re also willing to expend the financial resources necessary to accomplish those goals. That might include some difficult decisions about raising taxes, but when it comes to our rights and freedoms, no price is too high to pay.

I really disliked the sometimes repetitive questions and the narrowness of the quiz's inquiries.

But...


Here’s your PQ:  76.1

Politicians with similar PQs are:

Arlen Specter (D-Penn., 2009) PQ=67.4
Joe Lieberman (Ind.-Ct., 2005-09) PQ=74.0
