Default World's Quickest Political Quiz

Do you think you know where you stand politically? Are you sure? The result from this short test may surprise you and give you some food for thought. You'll be asked just 10 questions, and then it instantly tells you where you stand politically. It shows your position as a red dot on a "political map" so you'll see exactly where you score. The Quiz has received a lot of praise. The Washington Post said it has "gained respect as a valid measure of a person's political leanings.." The Fraser Institute said it's "a fast, fun, and accurate assessment of a person's overall political views." Suite University said it is the "most concise and accurate political quiz out there."

How did you all score? I'm a centrist but I'm on the verge of being a libertarian.

Your PERSONAL issues Score is 100%.
Your ECONOMIC issues Score is 80%.



LIBERTARIANS support maximum liberty in both personal and

economic matters. They advocate a much smaller government; one

that is limited to protecting individuals from coercion and violence.

Libertarians tend to embrace individual responsibility, oppose

government bureaucracy and taxes, promote private charity, tolerate

diverse lifestyles, support the free market, and defend civil liberties



i'm a nnw libertarian...

Personal 100%
Economic 80%


The chart puts me in the upper left corner of a Libertarian.

Liberal.

LIBERALS usually embrace freedom of choice in personal

matters, but tend to support significant government control of the

economy. They generally support a government-funded "safety net"
to help the disadvantaged, and advocate strict regulation

of business. Liberals tend to favor environmental regulations,

defend civil liberties and free expression, support government action

to promote equality, and tolerate diverse lifestyles. However, no matter what

they say on the campaign trail for President, Liberals forego morality, and

become Turkey's Bitch.

I'm shocked.

Your PERSONAL issues Score is 90%.
Your ECONOMIC issues Score is 20%

And I agree most with "Liberals."

Ugh, such a filthy word.
