The following are your scores. They are based on a gradual range of 0 to 12. For instance, a Conservative/Progressive score of 3 and 0 will both yield a result of social conservative, yet 0 would be an extreme conservative and 3 a moderate conservative

Conservative/Progressive score: 6
You are a social moderate. You think the progressive movement is overall well meaning, but sometimes it goes too far. On issues like abortion and affirmative action, you see the negatives of both extremes on the issue. You probably value religion, but at the same time you think it should still stay separate from the government

Capitalist Purist/Social Capitalist score: 0
You're a Capitalist Purist. You believe that the market should be completely free, and that the invisible hand of the market will make sure that the people get what they want and will do it in the most efficient way possible. You believe in small government, less taxes, and more privatization.

Libertarian/Authoritarian score: 0
You are libertarian. You think that the government is making way too many unnecessary laws that are taking away our innate rights. You believe that the government's job is primarily to protect people from harming other people, but after that they should mind their own business, and if we give the government too much power in controlling our lives, it can lead to fascism.

Pacifist/Militarist score: 2
You're a Pacifist. You are angered that the United States thinks it should dominate the world through its military force. You think that the only time war is necessary is when we are in direct danger of being attacked. You also believe the US spends way too much of its money on defense, as we can practically cut it in half and still easily defend ourselves, and use that money to fix all our economic problems.

Overall, you would most likely fit into the category of Hardcore Libertarian

No surprise here...
Conservative/Progressive score: 3
You are a social conservative. You believe in traditional values, and care first and foremost about your country, your family, and your religion. You dislike the agenda of the left because you see them as trying to destroy these things.

Capitalist Purist/Social Capitalist score: 3
You're a Capitalist Purist. You believe that the market should be completely free, and that the invisible hand of the market will make sure that the people get what they want and will do it in the most efficient way possible. You believe in small government, less taxes, and more privatization.

Libertarian/Authoritarian score: 2
You are libertarian. You think that the government is making way too many unnecessary laws that are taking away our innate rights. You believe that the government's job is primarily to protect people from harming other people, but after that they should mind their own business, and if we give the government too much power in controlling our lives, it can lead to fascism.

Pacifist/Militarist score: 8
You're a Moderate. You think that in very rare occasions, the United States should invade a country in order to make the world better by spreading democracy or ending a tyrants rule. You also think that defense is very important, and we shouldn't lower the defense budget. You think that, while the Iraq War probably was a mistake, that we can make the world a better place by sticking with it and spreading democracy in the middle east.

Overall, you would most likely fit into the category of Libertarian

Libertarian/Authoritarian score: 6
You're a Moderate. You think that we all have certain inalienable rights that must be protected, but that sometimes laws need to be made to protect the majority's lives or quality of lives. You might think that the 2nd amendment isn't necessary anymore because letting everyone a gun is extremely dangerous to the community. You might also be against illegal drug use or public pornography because of its possible harmful effects to society.

I have a theory about folks who lean to the left on social and economic issues, and whether or not they also come down on the libertarian side of the scale like UNH did. I find it to be a contradiction, because in order to enforce social engineering that comes with making everybody equal, government has to be invasive. I wonder sometimes if many liberals (like my brother) are not really libertarians at heart (because relatively speaking, all Americans are conservative and libertarian when compared to the rest of the world).

I have a few family members who are hardcore liberals but when you get into a conversation with them about the scope of governmental controls in our daily lives they turn into a bunch of little Daniel Boones. The best part of that is then inserting into the argument a challenege to reconcile their socially liberal beliefs with their libertarian beliefs. They always end up arguing with each other while I watch and laugh.

Yep...my sister-in-law, whom I love dearly...is a hard core liberal...or at least she professess to be one...

But she wants government regulation of her profession (nursing) severly reduced and often talks about the need to reduce the excessive taxation (in Massachusetts :o no less)... :coffee:

None of this actually matters... it's too late
The only difference fiscally between a republican and a Democrat in office is the language they use - other than that they both spend way too much - they both act like socialists with our money

Sure they have outward agenda differences but once they're in office it's all basically the same

What we need is the the house to be Liberal the senate to be Conservative and the president to be a moderate... in short = TOTAL GRID LOCK

That's the only way this Federal Government (no matter who the president is) actually works best - other wise we've got crazy spending
