Highest ranking dimension: Small Government
You believe in a government that keeps order but otherwise stays out of the way. You may have felt that what the country really needs is a government with the courage to take on some of the "sacred cows" of government spending. This may be because you have been irked by how much you pay in taxes. It may also be because you feel that excessive government support programs reward those with no initiative. Others may disagree with you because they see some people as having the system stacked against them. When politicians of your type make mistakes it is because they find it difficult to maintain the "tough love" approach when their friends and supporters ask for help.

Second highest ranking dimension: Rationalist
You believe in the power of reason to solve problems. You may have felt that what the country really needs is a leader who will honest about the costs and benefits of things. You may have felt that what the country really needs is to stop wasting time and money on silly hot button issues. This may be because you have been annoyed by people who get disproportionately excited about issues that won ’t make much difference to people’s lives no matter how they are decided. It may also be because you see too many squeaky wheels getting too much grease. Others may disagree with you because they have an emotional attachment to their positions and don’t see things in an objective way. W hen politicians of your type make mistakes because what they perceive as "logical" comes across as "confusing" or "uncaring", and they can’t win people over.

Combined statement:
Based on your answers, the best government for you is "invisible government" the less you notice it the better.

Your result for The Economic School of Thought Test ...
Austrian American
8 Keynesian, 23 Chicago, 77 Austrian
You are an Austrian American. I call you this because you obviously scored highly in the "Austrian School", but you still lean somewhat toward the "Chicago School" approach as to how a free market society works best. Perhaps you like F. A. Hayek. Perhaps you are combining libertarian intuition with a college economic backgrounds. In any event, this is definitely a solid free market stance; however, you might want to look more into these schools of thought, and find out about your inner conflict Wink

Compass:
You are a right social libertarian.
Right: 5.7, Libertarian: 5.28
 
Foreign Policy:
On the left side are pacifists and anti-war activists. On the right side are those who want a strong military that intervenes around the world. You scored: -5.76
Culture:
Where are you in the culture war? On the liberal side, or the conservative side? This scale may apply more to the US than other countries. You scored: 0.06

Phrasing on certain issues ("healthcare is a right," "spiritual not religious," "enforce morality," etc.) skewed this one a bit I think.

The Pitchfork Populist.

44% Utilitarian, 11% Nationalist, 49% Liberal and 91% Individualist!

The Pitchfork Populist.
You hate liberalism.  You hate Big Government.  You think people, by and large, should Mind Their Own Business and stop telling other people what to do.  You don't think anyone in power cares about the little people, and you are angry.  At everything, pretty much.  You probably identify as (paleo)conservative or libertarian.  You are similar to Pat Buchanan, Ron Paul, H.L. Mencken and possibly Murray Rothbard if you are extreme enough.

Your result for The True politics Test ...
Capitalist
You are 37% Socially Permissive and 75% Economically Permissive!
Capitalists allow for the most economic freedom possible. They believe in a free, lightly regulated market. The freer the market, the freer the people! As far as social freedoms, capitalists are usually more permissive than Republicans. You'd get along with Adam Smith!

Your result for The World's Smallish Political Test ...
Centrist
With a moderate personal and economic score, you appear to have a centrist view of politics. Centrists tend to consider each issue individually.

Are you a Hipster?

The Subtle Hipster

You're pretty hip, but not in a ridiculously over-the-top kind of way. In fact, you probably look like a regular person generally and almost blend in with the masses, but you wear a few subtle signifiers of your hipness. In fact, hipsters probably don't realize how hip you are until you get into conversations about music, movies, and politics. You're at a healthy level of hipness. Rock on. Don't try too hard.

Your result for The Are you a Hipster Test ...
The Hipster
sweet jesus. you're ###% hipster.
You're so hip that I'm actually a little shocked that you took this test. Here's the verdict: I'd want to bang you, but you also walk the fine line between hot and ridiculous. You're also probably a bit vain and obsessed with your image. Don't be terribly insulted--that's the same way I feel about myself a lot of the time. I recommend that you work on not being quite so superficial. But keep on with that hotness. Oh yeah--and you might want to refrain from calling yourself a hipster. It's just not cool. But you know that already.

Kill me.

You are a Staunch Conservative
Defining Values:
Pro-business, pro-military, pro-life, anti-gay and anti-social welfare with a strong faith in America. Anti-environmental. Self-defined patriot. Distrustful of government. Little concern for the poor. Unsupportive of the women's movement.
Who They Are:
Predominately white (93%), male (62%) and older. Married (74%). Extremely satisfied financially (54% make at least ,000). Fifty-seven percent are white Protestants.

Top Priorities for the Next President:
Morality (27%)
Taxes (21%)

Top Issues and Concerns in the 2000 Campaign:
Using payroll taxes for private retirement accounts (86%)
Eliminating the Inheritance Tax (85%)
Adding prescription drug benefits to Medicare (73%)

Analysis:
As in 1994, this extremely partisan Republican group's politics are driven by a belief in the free enterprise system and social values that reflect a conservative agenda. Dissatisfied with the state of the nation, Staunch Conservatives pay close attention to what is going on in politics and are highly vocal.

http://www.quiz2d.com/quiz/
Left Leaning Freedom Lover
Description

You desire substantially less government control of personal activity and somewhat less government control over economic activity than is presently the case in the U.S. You are a moderate libertarian by some definitions; others prefer to limit the term "libertarian" to those closer to the top corner of this graph, so I use the term Left-Leaning Freedom Lover to avoid confusion.

Your views are probably best represented by the Modern Whig Party. Whether it gets off the ground is still to be seen. Or you might like my plan for starting a third party— useful for starting from scratch or reforming an existing third party. Finally, your views could be represented by a mix of Democrats and Libertarians in office.

Regardless of whether you think third parties are viable, you might find my more recent articles on success for libertarians of interest. There, I use a broad definition of the word libertarian which includes people like yourself.

Approximately 14% of the takers of this quiz scored in this area.
