Somewhat simple political quiz...
No as good as some, but better than others (especially the "World's Smallest" that the libertarians always push.

2. I'm pretty far left
The last notch before the bulb.

But the questions didn't always have answers I totally agreed with.

6. Here's a shocker:
Edited on Sun Mar-07-04 08:38 PM by HypnoToad


For the actual questions:

Q1: Opts 2 and 4 tied.
Q5: Looking for a better life, or escaping persecution? Many in this country still face persecution, but have nowhere to go.
Q7: What about the option "Who cares if it is genetic or if it's a choice. They're people who have committed no crime."?

Graph: Shouldn't the red and blue be reversed?

7. not necessarily
a rarely used subsection of robert's rules of order says it's OK to reverse the red and blue on a political chart AS LONG AS left and wrong are properly represented ...

actually, it might not be from a subsection ... it might be from a part that robert took out ...

actually, i'm not sure robert ever referenced colors on a political chart ...

actually, i'm sorry i started this whole thing ...

please accept my sincere apologies ...

12. my results
Edited on Sun Mar-07-04 10:28 PM by rainbowgrrl24
Weird- I thought that my responses would lead me closer to the middle than what I came out with.

Ok, I can't seem to get the HTML to work- I must be missing a bracket somewhere.
Anyhow- I was a " far-left- liberal", one notch away from the most "far-left-liberal."

16. One dimensional spectrum = inaccurate
This test ignores economics completely. It would be thrown way off by an authoritarian (social conservative) leftist or a libertarian (social progressive) right winger.

I came out just "liberal" because I didn't pick the silly answers. Also, the way the abortion answers were worded, I didn't like any of them.

Take a look at Political Compass and throw away things like "anti-choice means right-wing".
