The political Compass is an interesting website I just found, it basically asks You questions ranging from equality to morals and economic systems etc.

I took it since I just learned about the ' left-right ' system, I knew about it for a while, but I've never done any research into it, I would consider myself more a communist but I'm open to socialism as well, anyway here's my score.

Libertarian left.
http://www.politicalcompass.org/printab ... &soc=-3.95
Economic Left/Right: -7.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -3.95

Others close to me on the graph are Gandhi, Nelson Mandela etc.

I seem to agree with the result for the most part I guess.

According to this test, I'm a left-libertarian, and a rather extreme one at that.

With an explanation like this - "If we recognise that this is essentially an economic line it's fine, as far as it goes. We can show, for example, Stalin, Mao Tse Tung and Pol Pot, with their commitment to a totally controlled economy, on the hard left. Socialists like Mahatma Gandhi and Robert Mugabe would occupy a less extreme leftist position" -

I find it not surprising that this system of evaluation finds me somewhat libertarian

Economic Left/Right: -8.88
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -7.79

Considerably closer to the centre economically than last time I took it, which I'm not surprised about.

Can't get the site to do anything other than show someone else's results; so I guess it must be based on "Flash" which I have disabled.

:shrug:

Thank you, that worked:

Apparently I'm very much like Gandhi. Not really that surprising.
