I scored 100% Libertarian...here, I always thought I was a Liberal...

LIBERTARIANS support maximum liberty in both personal and
economic matters. They advocate a much smaller government; one
that is limited to protecting individuals from coercion and violence.
Libertarians tend to embrace individual responsibility, oppose
government bureaucracy and taxes, promote private charity, tolerate
diverse lifestyles, support the free market, and defend civil liberties.

    CCORDING TO YOUR ANSWERS,

    You fall exactly on the border

    of two political philosophies...

    LIBERAL

    LIBERTARIAN

    LIBERALS usually embrace freedom of choice in personal matters, but tend to support significant government control of the economy. They generally support a government-funded "safety net" to help the disadvantaged, and advocate strict regulation of business. Liberals tend to favor environmental regulations, defend civil liberties and free expression, support government action to promote equality, and tolerate diverse lifestyles.

    Those online quizzes are... I don't want to say bogus, but they are. It says I'm left of Centrist. I don't think that's true. That, and there's no way to test for ideas that are more or less progressive than the norm.

    But how does this quiz define cutting "taxes and government spending by 50%"? That's so vague.

    CENTRISTS espouse a "middle ground" regarding government
    control of the economy and personal behavior. Depending on
    the issue, they sometimes favor government intervention
    and sometimes support individual freedom of choice.
    Centrists pride themselves on keeping an open mind,
    tend to oppose "political extremes," and emphasize what
    they describe as "practical" solutions to problems.
    drivingrl: "Will I ever get to meet Gwen Stefani?"
    kevinbeetle: "Yes. When her career washes up and her and Gavin move to Galveston, you will meet her at Hot Topic shopping for a Japanese cheerleader outfit.

    Next!"

    Libertarian for me as well

    One category was 60% and the other was 80% (I think that was economic).


    My guess is this quiz is biased toward Libertarians, though.
    The only people we should try to get even with...
    ...are those who've helped us.

    Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.
