Right side of Liberal, which is what I consider myself anyway.
However most those questions are loaded as hell.
For instance:
1.)"There should be no laws regarding sex for consenting adults."
Though this question seems to be asking if we believe there should be laws against gay or lesbian sex, I had to go with Disagree because there should be laws to prohibit sex in public places and stuff like that, though I would not support laws against consenting gay or lesbian adults regarding sex in private.
2.)"Repeal laws prohibiting adult possession and use of drugs."
Again we have a question that must be about marijuana but I had to go with Disagree because it doesn't specify the drug, while I would most likely vote in favor of legalizing marijuana.
Sure there is a maybe option, but I still love how political poll questions tend to put important issues in either an extremely bad or good light depending on what they want the results to be.
CENTRISTS espouse a "middle ground" regarding government
control of the economy and personal behavior. Depending on
the issue, they sometimes favor government intervention
and sometimes support individual freedom of choice.
Centrists pride themselves on keeping an open mind,
tend to oppose "political extremes," and emphasize what
they describe as "practical" solutions to problems.
Sounds about right

Thanks you guys. You're helping me a lot. Everyone else in my class is checking up on a somewhat predictable group, but I think I came up with one that's a lot more interesting and unpredictable. And the results have been interesting so far too.
Top right corner of the Centrist square... so I guess I lean Libertarian/Conservative.
Thanks for the interesting quiz. I think some of those questions are designed to be mini-Rorschach tests, as well. That could be why it seems so shallow.

LIBERTARIANS support maximum liberty in both personal and
economic matters. They advocate a much smaller government; one
that is limited to protecting individuals from coercion and violence.
Libertarians tend to embrace individual responsibility, oppose
government bureaucracy and taxes, promote private charity, tolerate
diverse lifestyles, support the free market, and defend civil liberties.

That was fun!!! I knew I was Libertarian but wow. Get the Republicans out of our bedrooms and the Democrats out of our pockets (actually, with Bush now both parties are in our pockets). I'm just really scared of the coming Republican Theocracy. That party has been so hijacked. I don't care if there is or isn't a seperation of church and state clause, if there isn't then there should be. Fundamentalists of any religion are damn scary.

Originally posted by Xavon Left Liberal here. However, the test seems like a crappy version of teh uber POLITICAL COMPASS/ With 6 pages of analitical goodness.
I don't know, I looked at your link and I think I like the one from the OP. The test you put up doesn't leave many options. Like this question...
Controlling inflation is more important than controlling unemployment.
What if you don't believe in controlling either. What if you think it's not the federal governments job to get involved in issues such as manipulating the market and the economy? I couldn't answer that question either way.

But oh my God, Xavon. Look where the ex-Nazi Pope landed on the scale for your quiz. Hmmmm... I thought he wasn't into that stuff anymore. lol.

This test is somewhat slanted, but still does okay... I believe more in state power... People are so much different in Minnesota as compared to Mississippi, that the government is simply not as representative as it should be...

I have taken this before, some years ago. I have moved from being libertarian to liberal. I can live with that.

The test is abit shallow to get a exact result.
Libertarian also, 90/80
I experienced exactly the same, a couple of years ago when I took it...libertarian, now liberal.
Plus back then they called statist something else, can't remember what it was (maybe facist )

my dot was borderlining centrist conservative and libaratarian
i guess it fits pretty well
I hope some day we can all put aside our racisms and prejudices and just laugh at people
I was on the middle of the line between liberitarian and Conservative, i think that fits pretty well....

Actually, right smack dab on the upper left corner of the Centrist square between Liberal and Libertarian.
