Take the Political Compass Test

I like to think of myself as pretty centrist, but I guess this pegged my liberal tendencies. I thought some fairly significant questions were missing that would have swung me more to the right though: gun control, DADT for a couple examples.

But I guess they can't ask everything.

Considering how most on the "right" seem to get around 0,0 and most on the "left" around -5,-5, -3,-2 seems pretty centrist.

last time I took the test this was my result:

Looks like I'm closest to the Dalai Lama

economic left/right 1.88
social libertarian/authoritarian -2.82

Bottom right quadrant. (2 little squares from the left down 3)

Economic Left/Right: -5.50
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -6.10

Some of the questions were too vague. There were too many where I was thinking yes in some cases, no in others... etc..

Economic Left/Right: -8.88
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.59

Well, at least I'm in good company.

Took it once, also proudly placed with Friedman.

This other site sacrifices length/depth/fun, but adds simplicity and accuracy as far as political views by US standards:

On "What's Your Political Type?" I am a capitalist,
and on "What political views do you have?" I am an independent.

I would say accurate, it's basically a simple 10-question interview that anyone could make, but it's less left-slanted than that political compass test.

Economic Left/Right: -3.00
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.56

Economic: -6.75
Social Liberty -7.64

Makes me collectivist and libertarian which is fine. And far away from the herd on this thread which is entertaining and bodes well for the future.

Yeah, I'm in the Nelson Mandela/the Dalai Lama neighborhood as well.
