Mine's still:

Economic Left/Right: 5.25
Social: 2.26

Though I was surprised by the social thing, since I think drugs and machine guns should be legalized and all...

Of course it does. What other issues are there?

I have no clue why. That's why I said I was surprised.

I have no clue why. That's why I said I was surprised.

Go back to the sections labeled:
"Now a look at some of your personal social values..."
and "..and how you see the wider society."
"If you got through that okay, you'll find these propositions on religion a breeze."
and "Finally, a look at sex."

Do you see any social questions there?  Did you choose to maximize freedom on all of them?  I doubt it.

I got:
Economic Left/Right: 0.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.31

Well, it asked for my moral standards in some places, and I gave them. But I wouldn't force them on society.

What I don't understand is how someone can on one hand be a social libertarian and on the other hand be an economic fascist.

You're against the free exchange of goods and services. That makes you an economic fascist.

I don't think of myself as a Populist, perhaps it just the way some questions are asked.

A populist would be left-wing economically and right-wing socially. You're a hardcore liberal.

That test is kind of messed up.

One of these days I'm going to make a better one.
