Halfway between the Pope and the Dalai Lama.

Interesting.

I was
Economic Left/Right: -4.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -0.05

Little farther left economically than Stefan, same on the Libertarian/Authoritarian scale.

I don't think the questions adequately assessed anything though. There were too many instances when I felt that I neither agreed nor disagreed.

there ya' go </font>[/QUOTE]I didnt make the claim it had a right or left slant. Instead I said the questions are formed badly and that the politically uninformed would answer certain ways which are controlled by the phrasing of the questions.

and as for the civil liberties thing...I put down "Strongly Disagree". my privacy and civil rights have not changed at all, nor do i see the privacy and civil rights of those around me being violated/changed.

[GrigoryRasputin]

They have changed b/c the government now has the ability to do many things that infringe on your civil liberties.... whether they have yet or not is not relavent.

Thats like saying "Ive never been murdered - so I dont think murder is a big problem"

I actually don't feel shocked by the results, and I did read and comprehend each question... :D

I know a lot of my views that I express on this forum seem quite to the right, I do view myself as a moderate. Nothing in this world is black or white, but rather quite grey. [img]smile.gif[/img]

These questions are poorly written (even spelling errors) and where the hell is my "neutral" button?

This is a terrible survey, many of the questions are one-sided and ignorant. Blah. Anyway, here's how I scored.

Economic Left/Right: -1.00
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -1.59

Considerably more liberal than what I believe is accurate.
