Please Take The Test!

[Sillyman]

For anyone curious as to how I voted:

Should military service be voluntary. No. In my opinion, everyone should be in the military just by being a citizen.

Government should not control radio, TV, the press, or the internet. Yes. Outside of government sponsered stations/publications/sites, the government has no reason to control them.

Repeal regulations on sex for consenting adults. Yes. In fact, I would like to see the area of "consenting adult" broadened somewhat.

Drug laws do more harm than good. Repeal them. Yes. Legalization of most drugs with sponsered clinical treatment options are the best course in my mind.

People should be free to come and go across borders to live and work where they choose. Yes. I'm a large fan of immigration. Note that a corporation is not a person however.

Businesses and farms should operate without government subsidies. Yes. Corporate welfare goes against competition, which impedes capitalism.

People are better off with free trade than with tariffs. No.

Minimum wage laws cause unemployment. Repeal them. No. So much better to have a job with no standards whatsoever.

End taxes. Pay for services with user fees. No.

All foreign aid should be privately funded. No.

I rang in as a centrist.

That certainly was a short quiz. I would have enjoyed expansion on a few of the topics.

Reminded me of one of the newpaper horoscopes.

Not a surprise really and I voted the same as sillyman except for the military service thing. I went for maybe because I can see cases where we should have a draft and cases where we should not.

Really need more info for that question to say either way.

Pretty much what i expected...that's how i catorigize myself

 

[Jedi_Outcast]

Oh, goood, I'm a Libertarian (hangs head in shame)

 

[Wrong Element]

I'm on that Centrist/Left Liberal borderline, which according to the poll makes me a Centrist. The poll is pretty clearly an attempt to promote libertarianism and isn't very comprehensive; still, that's a fair description of where I am in reality.

 

[binkley]

Oh, those guys.

Look, you nut job, you're not going to win elections anytime soon, so why not just give up now and move to Hong Kong or somewhere.

Oh... did I mention that I score 90/60?

Conservative

ok somehow i got this but i would not want offical standards or government decisions in my personal matters i think i answered wrong going to try again

 

[SexySlut2]

It says my political philosophy is Centrist.

 

[1stTwistedSistr]

Libertarian

What will this prove in the end? We're all just a bunch of puppets anyway...

 

[Lost Cause]

It all comes down to.....

No matter which side you're on, you tend to vote your own mind. I register Libertarian, and vote if they're on the ticket. If no Lib is listed, I'll call or email both party candidates and ask them some Libertarian leaning questions. I'll then vote for whoever comes closest to my view. The same goes for bond issues, etc....

*If you don't vote, the status quo wins.

 

[dreamer]

No big surprise here.

Libertarians are self-governors in both personal and economic matters. They believe government's only purpose is to protect people from coercion and violence. They value individual responsibility, and tolerate economic and social diversity



Libertarian 37.0%
Left-liberal 17.8%
Centrist 29.7%
Right-Conservative 7.3%
Authoritarian 8.1%

[Shy Tall Guy]

The first test I got 100% on!

But they should have had another version of the test that had more questions - I know there are some issues where I don't line up with the LP party - well maybe in principle, but not on implementation.
