While we're on the subject of tests and questionaires i thought this one was ok - it sort of gives you an idea of where you stand politically ie/left, right etc..

^^ same (mandella)

Economic Left/Right: -3.88
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -2.77
 
Economic Left/Right: -2.50
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -3.18

Since I normally vote Libertarian, I didn't think of myself as a leftist. In fact, if I were a bit more of a libertarian leftist, I would be right there with Ghandi.
 
I was slightly economic right and Austhoritarian
Its hell fun to try and get it as far right and Authoritarian as possible - i got it in the top right corner
 
To be extact

economic right - 1.2
Authoritarian - .38

I love this one - 'There are no savage and civilised peoples; there are only different cultures.'

I've done this before, I stand on the authoritarian left, which means I'm a communist apparently.:loco:

You don't say! I'll take the test later, and probably come up liberal so I'd like to know what you think.
 
Economic left/right -5.25 (Quite far to the left)
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian -0.41 (exactly balanced between the two).
Nothing like Hitler then, more like Ghandi:yuk:
 
Birkenau said:
Some nazi you are.
Exactly! I'm not a Nazi! Your prejudices are proven unfounded - ha!
But I have to ask you Birkenau: how is it that as you are apparantly an authoritarian left-winger (communist, as you say) you are simultaneously a strong defender of Western democracy - which you show much trust in? It seems to be a contradiction.
 
I took it about a year ago- about +1 on the economic left/right, about +2 on the authoritarian.

It should be noted that the test is put out by a liberal group and is thus rather biased. It's rather meaningless anyways, since you can score similarly to some politician (John Kerry, in my case) and disagree with them on almost every issue.
