    take the test, find out where you really stand.

    My results:

    Economic Left/Right: 0.25
    Libertarian/Authoritarian: -3.69

    this means economically, i'm damn near dead center, while i tend towards the libertarian on social issues.

    I don't feel like taking it again, but last time I got -6 on the Authoritarian/Libertarian scale and +6 on the Left/Right scale.

    Many of the questions are too vague, interesting stuff anyway.

    Some of the questions are misleading. For example, there's a big difference between acknowledging the advantages of a one-party state and approving it. IMHO, it's a given that a one-party state is more efficient, but the real question is whether or not that efficiency outweighs the dangers of tyranny.

    Still fun to a degree.
