The Political Compass

Take the test and post your results...

Mine as follows:

The Political Compass
Economic Left/Right: 1.38
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -0.72

This means I lean slightly right and libertarian. I would say this is fairly accurate except I would've thought I was a little farther to the right.

That was fun, Dave! Here's mine:
Economic Left/Right: -3.63
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -1.59

This places me directly next to Gandhi. Go figure! People here have been labeling me "pro-war"!

Pretty close to Thatcher. I'm guessing I'd be a little closer to Reagan. Yesss!!!!

Well, here it is Dave. :lol:

Economic Left/Right -6.00
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian -1.44

According to the graph I lean a little over halfway to the left and slightly toward Libertarian. I haven't a clue what that means except that I care about people rather than party line philosophies and political posturing. :? It was fun though. :wink:

This shows that you are most likely fairly liberal on economic issues and somewhat authoritarian on social issues. Authoritarian meaning more government interference rather than less.

Okie Dokie. Well I either answered some question wrong, or something, because, while I agree the government has it's place in controlling certain facets of civilization, I think they are over controlling this country.

Cool thing- back in 99 I attended the World Festival of Sacred Music at the Hollywood Bowl and was able to meet the Dalai Lama, one of the greatest days of my life. There is such a calming peaceful aura surounding him.

Lulu

that is amazing - I met the Dalai Lama first in 1989 in Costa Rica at the World Peace Conference and then again two years ago when he graced the University. I was very fortunate to be one of 10 to be selected for a private audience.

You are so right. There is such a calming presence surrounding him - even tho, he makes you think, somehow your brain is much more calm and able to think more rationally.

Oh and by the way
