My result.

#1   Libertarian conservative. You hold that the free market is the best way of organising economic activity, but you combine this with adherence to more traditional social values of authority and duty.
#2   Christian democrat
#3   Third Way
#4   Fascist (oh dear!)
#5   Market liberal
#6   Social democrat
#7   Social liberal
#8   Anarcho-capitalist
#9   Anarcho-communist
#10 Ecologist or green
#11 Classical socialist
#12 Communist

[The Dowager Mod]

#1 You are a classical socialist, believing in equality of outcome as a principle. This might mean greater equality (e.g. Old Labour), or as close to absolute equality as possible. However, you will believe in an extensive public sector, covering not just public services (transport, healthcare etc.) but probably also the 'commanding heights' of industry (e.g. iron and steel). Your views on personal morality will be reasonably tolerant, in general, but there is considerable variation within this political group.
#2 was Communist

#6  classical socialist

[California Dreamer]

1 Third Way.
The Third Way is a fairly nebulous concept, but it rests on the idea of combining economic efficiency - i.e. a market economy with some intervention - with social responsibility. The focus is emphatically on the community as a whole, and not necessarily equality per se. Adherents of the Third Way range from moderate to conservative in their social views, and have recently been willing to take a "tough" line on a range of social issues.

#2 social liberal.
#3 social democrat.  
#4 Christian democrat -
#5 ecologist or green.
#6 libertarian conservative
#7 classical socialist,
#8 market liberal
#9  Anarcho-capitalist
#10 communist.
#11 fascist
#12 anarcho-communist,
 
The US needs more 'third way' politicians

[WalterMitty]

1. anarcho-capitalist

[ilikeverin]

#1: You are a social liberal.  Like all liberals, you believe in individual freedom as a central objective - but you believe that lack of economic opportunity, education, healthcare etc. can be just as damaging to liberty as can an oppressive state.  As a result, social liberals are generally the most outspoken defenders of human rights and civil liberties, and combine this with support for a mixed economy, with an enabling state providing public services to ensure that people's social rights as well as their civil liberties are upheld.
#2: classical socialist
#3: social democrat
#4: ecologist or green
#5: communist
#6: Third Way
#7: market liberal
#8: anarcho-communist
#9: anarcho-capitalist
#10: Christian democrat
#11: libertarian conservative
#12: fascist

The best political test yet!  The description fits me to a 'T'.

*waits to see if there are any other Social Liberals *

[Platypus]

1. Social Democrat

You are a social democrat. Like other socialists, you believe in a more economically equal society - but you have jettisoned any belief in the idea of the planned economy. You believe in a mixed economy, where the state provides certain key services and where the productivity of the market is harnessed for the good of society as a whole. Many social democrats are hard to distinguish from social liberals, and they share a tolerant social outlook.

2. Social Liberal
3. Third Way

6. Greenie
7. Christian Democrat
8. Communist
9. Market Liberal
10. Anarcho-Capitalist
11. Anarcho-Communist
12. Fascist

I'm happy with that list.

[California Dreamer]

I waiting to see some fascists.

the entire european spectrum is a bit left of the American political spectrum....I bet a super conservative American might be considered a Fascist by Euro standards.

1. Liberaterian Conservative
2. Anarcho-Capitalist
3. Christian Democrat
4. Market Liberal
5. Fascist (?)

[KEmperor]

My result:

#1 You are an anarcho-capitalist. Anarcho-capitalists take the Jeffersonian belief that "that government is best which governs least", and extend it - "that government is best which governs not at all". The theory of anarcho-capitalism is that the market can replace the state as a regulator of individual behaviour (resulting in private courts, private policing etc.).

#2 Market Liberal.
#3 Libertarian Conservative
#4 Social Liberal
#5 Christian Democrat  
#6 Third Way
#7 Fascist.

#10 Anarcho-Communist
#11 Classical Socialist

[muon2]

You are a market liberal.

You adhere to the traditional liberal belief in freedom, and take this to mean negative rather than positive freedom - i.e. a slimmed-down state is the best guarantor of freedom. You will therefore support a laissez-faire economic policy, and you will be reasonably tolerant on the social front - though less emphatically so than social liberals.

[Fmr. Gov. NickG]

Well, I got Communist...and I though I had toned it down in my advancing age.

#1   You are a communist. You believe, at least in theory, in absolute equality of income - and you oppose the whole capitalist system per se. You want to abolish the market economy and replace it with one in which the workers (usually meaning the state) control the building blocks of the economy. Your views on personal morality will vary; traditional communists tended to be more authoritarian, while modern "eurocommunists" tend to take a liberal line.  

#2  Classical socialist
#3  Ecologist/green
#4  Social Democrat
#5  Anarch-communist
#6  Third Way
#7  Social Liberal
#8  Christian democrat
#9  Fascist
#10  Libertarian conservative
#11  Anarcho-capitalist
#12  Market liberal


Funny thing is...I put "not sure" on the "absolute equality of income" question.

[TheWildCard]

Fairly accurate I'd say.... Christian Dem. was a bit higher then expected though.

#1 You are a Libertarian Conservative. You hold that the free market is the best way of organising economic activity, but you combine this with adherence to more traditional social values of authority and duty.

#2 Christian Democrat
#3 Third Way
#4 Market Liberal
#5 Anarcho-Capitalist
#6 Social Liberal
#7 Social Democrat
#8 Green
#9 Fasicst
#10 Classical Socialist
#11 Anarcho-Communist
#12 Communist

*hums, waiting for another Social Liberal*

Since we got the same on the other political ideology test, makes sense that I got Social Liberal too.  After that it differs significantly from yours, #2 being a Social Democrat.

Oh my God...I'm more fascist than Opebo!!!

On the other hand fascists believe in strong government, which Opebo obviously doesn't.
