Democrat
Republican
Liberitarian
Communist


Excuse me? I refuse to be a Democrat or a Republican so I must be a libertarian or a commy..

Quiz writer must be a Republican..

Your people give up only a precious few rights that they believe is only necessary to maintain a stable nation under a code of law. The individual is encouraged and is given the opportunity to advance himself/herself in their society. Although service to the community is not completely absent, more focus is placed on the advancement of the individual.

Interesting that I got the same description as Tecoyah and FngKestrel yet the percentages are quite different.

I wonder if others also got the "YOU SCORED HIGHER THEN XX%" and edited it out?

Doesn't suprise me that, in the words of my wife, I am so "extreme!"

Welcome to the club (Fascism, 43% liberty, 42% individualism). When would you like to start plotting our path to world domination? And it's not something you should be embarassed about, there's no better feeling than the one that comes from knowing what's best for other people, even if they don't realize it yet .

You scored higher than 97% on liberty

You scored higher than 94% on individualism

Fascism

Your citizens enjoy a few freedoms. They gladly give those freedoms up for government funded housing, medical care, welfare, and public schools. The government follows/uses the (holy book) and/or the state ideology to legislate and judge every citizen. Individuals are encouraged to succeed, given they do it within god's or the leader's law. ( Don't want to post this result? Well I probably wouldn't want to either if I found out I was a thought control freak like you )

Your test said you prefer fascism with: 48% liberty and 38% individualism. Then you asked that other's take the responsibility to warn you of the consequences of a link you chose to click.

For me, that's funny. See, you had a low score on liberty and individualism, which to me (again, this is all in my head, you do *not* have to agree) means you like other people to have responsibility over the individual, and you ask others to do that for you with the link, by posting a warning.

I swear, I mean no offense, but that's funny to me.

The test gave rather US centric options though it was accurate in that I'm for a democratic socialist state. If you ask me however I value liberty more than the showed. I doubt those who got fascist above are actually fascist.
