Your true political self:
You are a

Social Liberal
(61% permissive)


and an...

Economic Liberal
(15% permissive)


You are best described as a:


Socialist


You exhibit a very well-developed sense of Right and Wrong and believe in economic fairness.

Social score interesting; I was only slightly left of center. Right near Mikhail Gorbachev, in fact.

That test hurt my eyes.

11% Austrian.

My answers were half socialist ("socialist" here seems to mean communist) and half Keynesian.

Well...

Social Liberal
You scored 68% Personal Liberty and 32% Economic Liberty!



A social liberal believes in little to moderate government intervention on personal matters and moderate to high government intervention on economic matters. They tend to be opposed to war, police powers, victimless crimes, and what they may consider to be a corporate state or rogue capitalism. They generally support personal liberty and believe in a social safety net or welfare state. They support self-ownership and privacy. Social liberals are essentially the "mainstream" left and left of center.

Weird.

This test is awful.

Communist

You scored 56% Personal Liberty and 18% Economic Liberty!

A Communist believes in moderate government intervention on personal matters and extremely heavy government intervention on economic matters. They are strongly opposed to capitalism and try to balance personal liberty with safety or security. They believe in an extremely strong welfare state in the name of equalizing everything. Communist thought is based on the notion of pure equality and collective ownership - it is economically collectivist.

Xahar, you perhaps want to switch your result with me. I am not a communist.

But I'm not either! Tongue

Individual vs Social

"The individualist believes that society works best through a focus on individual rights, freedoms, actions and responsibilities. The social thinker believes that the ideal state should focus more upon collective action and take a social approach to rights and responsibilities."

You scored 71 out of 100 on a scale of Individual vs Social. This means that politically you are more likely to value the need for group actions and group benefit over individual enterprise and benefit.

84% of test takers were more individual than you.
14% of test takers were more social than you.

Theist vs Materialist

"The materialist believes that all objective criteria to influence politics can be reasonably derived without recourse to the divine or the spiritual. The theist believes that spiritual beliefs are important and should influence government policy."

You scored 36 out of 100 on a scale of Theist vs Materialist. This means that politically you are less likely to believe that religion and spirituality are superstitions that should not inform political debate.

17% of test takers were more theist than you.
82% of test takers were more materialist than you.

Big Government vs Small Government

"The big government advocate believes that governments should be responsible for regulating a wide array of social practices, even what might be considered personal decisions such as abortion, euthanasia, children's education and births. A small government advocate thinks that, wherever possible, these issues should be up to individuals or companies to direct."

You scored 56 out of 100 on a scale of Big Government vs Small Government. This means that politically you are neither more nor less likely to believe that government should keep out of legislating social policies, leaving such decisions to individuals.

45% of test takers were more big government than you.
53% of test takers were more small government than you.


 
Nationalist vs Internationalist

"The nationalist believes in the sovereign rule of nation states, particularly his or her own. The internationalist believes that there should be more important international fora and perhaps, ultimately, international government."

You scored 76 out of 100 on a scale of Nationalist vs Internationalist. This means that politically you are more likely to favour international bodies over national ones.

84% of test takers were more nationalist than you.
14% of test takers were more internationalist than you.

 
Protectionist vs Free Trader

"The protectionist believes in barriers against free trade most probably due to a belief that this is in his or her country's interests. The free trader rejects such notions, believing that the system ultimately suffers when tariffs, subsidies and other obstacles to free trade persist."

You scored 44 out of 100 on a scale of Protectionist vs Free Trader. This means that politically you are neither more nor less likely to favour free trade over protectionist policies.

33% of test takers were more protectionist than you.
65% of test takers were more pro free trade than you.

Absolutist vs Non-Absolutist

"The absolutist believes that either a divine presence or scientific laws provide absolute truths about the world, which can and should be applied in practise. The non-absolutist may be either a relativist, or simply someone who is more pragmatic."

You scored 49 out of 100 on a scale of Absolutist vs Non Absolutist. This means that politically you are neither more nor less likely to believe that there is an absolute truth that may guide your ideological beliefs.

22% of test takers were more absolutist than you.
75% of test takers were more non-absolutist than you.

Controlled Market vs Liberal Market

"Both of these categories assume a capitalist system. Assuming this system, the controlled market believer holds that government should intervene in regulating a nation's economy: wage laws, environmental standards, privatised industries and workplace relations policy. A liberal market thinker believes that such regulation is unnecessary and often counter-productive."

You scored 15 out of 100 on a scale of Controlled Market vs Liberal Market. This means that politically you are more likely to believe that there is need for government regulation of industry.

11% of test takers were more controlled market thinkers than you.
88% of test takers were more liberal market thinkers than you.

Marxist vs Non-Marxist

"This scale purports to show to what extent you follow the thought and teachings of Marx. Marxists tend to be scientific, materialist and revolutionary, believe in class struggle and the laws of historical and dialectic materialism."

You scored 41 out of 100 on a scale of Marxist vs Non-Marxist. This means that politically you are neither more nor less likely to follow the philosophies of Marx.

31% of test takers were more Marxist than you.
67% of test takers were more non-Marxist than you.

I appear to be a collectivist, theist, socially centrist, internationalist, protectionist, absolutist, socialist revisionist Marxist. Politics Forum calls me a socially-orientated, theist, internationalist, controlled-market kind of person and a borderline internationalist.

This is a good test.

You got 26 points.

Center Left. You're probably a mainstream Democrat. Did you try to figure out why we deserved to be attacked on 9/11? Do you believe that people will still discriminate even withall the laws about? I thought so. For fun, here are where some other major political figures would score (out of 144): George W. Bush: 94 John Kerry: 58 Ralph Nader: 12 Howard Dean: 34 Colin Powell: 82 Joe Lieberman: 70 John Edwards: 52 Harold Browne: 90 Michael Savage: 108 Me: 104

Evidently the quizmaker has no concept of libertarianism.
The quizmaker is an obvious Fox News-watching wingnut, which just makes it funnier.

Indeed. Pretty stupid.

Global Kumbaya

-6 traditional, 8 liberties, -10 capitalist, -4 isolationist and 4 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!

Compared to other takers
25/100 You scored -6 on traditional, higher than 25% of your peers.
30/100 You scored 8 on liberties, higher than 30% of your peers.
4/100 You scored -10 on capitalist, higher than 4% of your peers.
3/100 You scored -4 on isolationist, higher than 3% of your peers.
13/100 You scored 4 on populist, higher than 13% of your peers.

Communitarian
You scored 64 Equality, 43 Liberty, and 71 Stability!

Your commitment to both equality and stability makes you a blend of the Socialist and the Conservative. This combination may seem unusual but consider the way in which both think loyalty to community takes priority over loyalty to oneself. You recognise the value of traditional culture and institutions. You also value government intervention in the economy. You hope that a combination of traditional values and interventionist economics will protect your way of life. You are concerned that the twin forces of free markets and permissive culture promote selfishness and erode community standards. If this is too bland for you then try the Authoritarian on for size.

You scored 64% on Equality, higher than 58% of your peers.You scored 43% on Liberty, higher than 9% of your peers.You scored 71% on Stability, higher than 70% of your peers.
