Centrist, almost dead center.

I used to be a communist but moved on .

'Socialist' or 'statist' is pretty much a nice way of saying 'communist'.

[mbs]

liberal... my belief system has clearly remained unchanged from the giddy days of green tobacco and bell-bottoms (Yes, I did wear them! Didn't ever wear safari-suits, which I 'm sure some on this forum definitely did...)

[DFantom]

liberal...must be cos i just reregistered at varsity (either that or all the pot)

That explains it, never did weed or varisty so not a liberal...ah makes sense now

Your PERSONAL issues Score is 70%.
Your ECONOMIC issues Score is 70%.

[Debbie]

Libertarians abound! Just as I suspected!

The world is getting lonely for us liberals....

[alchamy]

I'm Conservative, as expected since I like rules. Just not Telkoms

LIBERAL LIBERTARIAN

I said agree to everything but :-

"Repeal laws prohibiting adult possession and use of drugs"
I put Maybe here, I'm on the fence regarding this issue, because I wouldn't agree on possession of all drugs - however, I'm only for prosecuting dealers of highly addictive damaging drugs as opposed to users of them.

"End "corporate welfare." No government handouts to business"
Maybe - this is far to broad a subject to cover. Some smaller businesses may require government handouts to get started, while large organisations may be of benefit to government, hense the need for handouts.

"End government barriers to international free trade"
Maybe - another contentious issue. Free trade has it's good points and it's bad points. Some industry sectors will thrive, others will perish.

"Replace government welfare with private charity"
Disagree - private charity can donate to government if they wish.
A correctly run government has welfare programs which a private charity may not either want to finance, or don't have the funding/ability to finance.

who would have ever thought it but I am an out and out Libertarian very left of Center!
60% on Economics 80% on Personal Issues

And there I knew I was a Liberal but had NO idea it ran this deep!!

LOL

[Debbie]

Peapod - Nice score on the personal liberties. Now if you could just work on bringing down the economic liberties score by about 10%-15%....then we can be friends!! Just kidding! :P

I decided to slash goverment spending, do away with corporate handouts, keep social welfare a government issue and keep a welfare system.
That makes me fair and reasonable doesnt it?

Oh and sex n drugs n rock n roll should ALWAYS be out of free choice - I am personally rather pedestrian in all 3 camps so am not shouting for a free reefer with big boy condom purchases, just the right to choose what I do in the privacy of my own home.

[Perdition]

...so am not shouting for a free reefer with big boy condom purchases, just the right to choose what I do in the privacy of my own home.

I think that's why I scored 90% in the Personal issues, I'm all for the free reefer with the big boy condom
