Political Compass (http://www.politicalcompass.org)

I recently heard about this site from a friend. The purpose of the site is to give you a bearing on your left/rightism on both economic and social issues, because being left economically does not mean one is left socially (i.e. Stalin, Mao Zedong, etc) and the other three possible combinations as well.

I was ranked at Left 6 (of 10) on both social and economic issues.

4.50 to the left economically, 4.51 to the left socially.

Almost diagonally opposite Bush.

This may surprise some of you of how close to the center I actually am, but I was 2.88 economically and 1.18 socially. :]

Shoot. I x-ed the screen. At any rate, I was approx. -4 economically and -2 socially.

I AM NELSON MANDELA :p

I did the same-clicked the print screen then hit back-dint work. Anywho, i was about -5.7 social and -5.4 economic. I thought i had liberal/communistic(jk) ideas, but never realized i was that strong in those feelings.

I am a democrat but not as left-wing as some.

Yeah, I'm about as socially liberal as the Dalai Lama, and as economically lberal as Nelson Mandella. I'd say that's some pretty good company. :)

Economic Left/Right: -3.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -0.41


I like what they have to say about me. I'd have to agree about my Economic standpoint, but my Libertarian/Authoritarian is (IMHO) a little more towards the Authoritarian...
