Wow.

I'm surprised at the strength of the "libertarian" score, as I consider myself a democratic socialist (or social democrat at it's more popular to call it now).



Silly, but fun

I think it makes you a hippie, you expect the government to give you stuff and control everyone who works but don't want it to get in the way of free love and drugs

I feel I should be more economically right than this, but I seem a little less extreme than last time.

The scariest thing is that I vote in every election. And...wait for it...not third party.

But you see, that's the thing.

I'm NOT a hippie.

I believe in a strong social welfare system. I would gladly pay more taxes for a better, state subsidized health system, better education. In effect, I'm a socialist who believes in democracy...



Mr Mephisto

PS - and my shaved head just doesn't jive with the hippy moniker!

Yes, because our elected officials are obviously representative of those who posted here. I find it funny that with a conservative (read Republican) legislature, and a conservative president, you can still find room to bitch about taxes. Republican legislators must be awfully ineffectual if they have not been able to put your skyrocketing tax bills back on a leash.

No, Im not joking, I answered the questions honestly.

To be honest, some of them like "should women be allowed to have abortions?" or "is it wrong to be gay?" seemed to be jokes to me, I couldnt think that anyone could feel anything else on at least 1/4 of the Q's.
