Now about your results, you are conservative on economical issues but liberal on civil and social values. You believe in freedom for both economical and social aspects, thus you are Libertarian. What I was saying is that the way the questions are phrased is asanine, not the issues themselves. Oh, and thanks on reading my score, I figured I was a Libertarian.

Economic Left/Right: -4.13 Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -1.59 Glad to see that I'm far, far away from Bush. I much prefer the company of Mandela & The Dalai Lama in my grid. To paraphrase Don Barzini "After all, he's not a Communist."

Now about your results, you are conservative on economical issues but liberal on civil and social values. You believe in freedom for both economical and social aspects, thus you are Libertarian. How is he conservative on economic issues? Originally posted by Mr. Baggins:
Quite a few of these questions are pretty ridiculous.
"Our race has many superior qualities, compared with other races."
"If economic globalisation is inevitable, it should primarily serve humanity rather than the interests of trans-national corporations."
"All people have their rights, but it is better for all of us that different sorts of people should keep to their own kind."
Anyways I got:
Economic Left/Right: 7.63
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -0.87 I don't see why those questions are ridiculous. This test is placing you somewhere on the political spectrum, and if you are a fascist or nationalist the race and people question is not very strange. Same with the first question for a neoliberal.

are incorrect. Either you answered some of questions wrong, or you are a commie liberal after all! Jeez, you've gotten a higher negative score on economic aspects than a die hard liberal as myself. :p My compliments.
