I know it's not a debate topic but has anyone tried the
political compass @ http://politicalcompass.org/ ??

You answer a few questions and it plots whether you
are more left or right wing, authoritarian or liberal.

I would be interested to see any extreme results.

Not surprisingly I was in the lower left corner. The left (communist), libertarian (anarchist) corner.

I came out somewhat to the left of Ghandi. -7 left, -5 down. Is
that extreme? Not sure.

So far your the only one with a positive number on the Soc and even
yours is almost a negative. I cannot imagine the type of answers
required to be a high positive on that.
