Pretty crappy test if you ask me. Impossible to answer many question as there is no good response available.

Many of these quizzes are. I just found it interesting that I began leaning toward Edwards recently and he popped up #1 on the list.

However, it's all for fun....

pretty good test though...only one question for me didnt have a relatively appropriate choice to answer

death penalty and marijuana questions arent that well written

These obviously are just for fun (i.e. don't use it to make your decision). This went pretty much how I expected. As with most non-libertarians, I agree iwth about half of Paul and disagree with about half.

Perhaps some of us don't have faith in corporations solving problems. For example, your pick that there should be no minimum wage...while that is great for corporations, many would view the ability for 25 cents an hour to be paid for a good days work to be a market flaw. The market would not correct itself and there'd be a lot of people making far less than current minimum wage. I don't happen to think that's OK because of their immense lazyness.

Also, it appears that your preference of a solid liberatarian "true conservative" (or whatever you'd label him) is only slightly above the Neo-Con GOP.

P.S. I realize the irony that I would make such a statement after saying in a recent post that these are "just for fun."

I think you are confusing "Free Markets" 100% exclusively with "corporations" ...

"corporations" are a recent off shoot of free markets, and they are a "PRIVELAGE" business entity, and that privelage is actualy largley granted by congress and TAX LAWS.

if we simply wratcheted up their tax burden, and held them acountable FINANCIALY like we hold real people .... ie there are no fucking loopholes and they pay out the ass ... we wouldnt be in the mess we are in.

But the free market is not to blame, the governments decree that the "corporation" is a viable entity with the SAME RIGHTS AS A SINGULAR HUMAN is largely the problem, and there are step that can be taken to fight back against that.


Also, your assertion that the market would not correct for 25 cent an hour wages is unfounded.

If people are willing to work for 25 cents an hour that is 100% THEIR PROBLEM!

wrong. thats all our problem.

its a sad state of affairs when somone on this earth is actually having to do that (most likely for a company that has more money than their entire country) and its sadder when nobody cares (see - usa).
