Not sure how accurate the test is. For many of the questions I was searching for an I don't give a sh!t. But the results were pretty much in the middle:

economic -.08
social -2.06

They definately need a no opinion option for many of those questions. My results were definately skewed by that.

Economic Left/Right: -4.50
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -2.72


Looks like I am close to the Dalai Lama, Nelson Mandela and Ghandi in my views.

Damn, apparently I'm more of an anarchist than I thought. But I can't stand Ayn Rand:confused:

Or I'm just a diluted brock...

Slightly to the right on economic issues when compared to the Dalai Lama, apparently.

When did Hitler take this quiz? :)

Nah, you'd be in Ayn Rand territory if you were +2.75 economic. You're safe :D

That ones asks about the road blocks put up by both parties causing nothing to happen....

But can also be a check and balance keeping either side from running amuck.

I would hate to see either Republicans or Democrats solely in charge......yikes.

So far we have Brock in the lead for the "Jerry Falwell Godless Whore" gold medal...

$tinkle is the furthest the other way...but geez, overall we're a bunch of social libertarians.

I think it's a fair comment, it would be significant advantage. There are a lot of disadvantages however, so I would agree with that statement whilst contending that overall it would not be a good thing.

I honestly don't know anymore.
I hit just about where I thought I would:

Economic Left/Right: -0.12
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: 2.87


If I could only find a way for this survey to make me huge. I think most people might take offense to the nickname "meat", but I dig it :thumb:

I took it again since originally I just posted my results from when this got passed around the office a while back. This time I was a little further left on the economics but pretty much the same on the social issues.

Guilty as charged I guess

N8 didn't weigh in with his numbers - methinks he's a couple ticks to the right of me.

that f*cker makes Genghis Khan look like a choirboy;) :D
P.S- since I started this I suppose I should tell you all that I unsurprisingly occupy the lower left hand part of the compass....the south west...that's where I'm from...

N8 could not take the test. None of the questions had the answer suitable for him, "I:heart:GWB".
