    I'm extremely moderate (49% and 45% on the scales).

    Pretty much all question deal with US issues though, I didn't understand the whole 'voucher' system for education, supporting gun ownership would be rather radical in my country while it would be standard in the US, I think my country could spend more money on the military, but of course, I feel the US is just wasting tax money the way the military-industrial network works etc.

    You have to imagine being American to fill in this poll imho, and that in itself distorts the results

    The Lemur is a moderate, verging on both libertarian and liberal territory.

    Personal Score - 72%
    Economic Score - 52%

    As with everybody else, I quibble with some of their categorizations. But after all, it's just another silly web quiz.

    You scored the following on the PoliticsMatch questions:

    Personal Score 36%
    Economic Score 82%


    Where You Fit In

    Where your Personal score meets your Economic score on the grid below is your political philosophy. Based on the above score, you are a Libertarian-Leaning Conservative .

    Just FYI, this quiz is an expanded version of Libertarian.org's "world's smallest political quiz", that has been around since 1997
    http://www.theadvocates.org/quiz.html
    note the similar score graphing and analysis.

    In those days, it was designed to show folks that they were Libertarian, but didn't know it (therefore, they ought to join up).

    I'm not slamming the quiz... it performs its function of stimulating conversation, and mapping out differences of opinion.

    However, as the non-US members here have pointed out, it's very US-oriented, and might only be useful for comparison in that context.

    And I'm just pointing out that it (the quiz) has a partisan history. Since we're all joining in the fun, here's mine on the 'old' quiz:

    The RED DOT on the Chart shows where you fit on the political map.

    did the org ever do the political compass test? i think it's a bit more involved than this quiz.

    it said i'm a moderate libertarian, don't know what that means though...

    DA your cosmo quiz is horrid. I'm a Moderate Liberal Populist, well the dots right under the O of the Moderate though, so right in the middle. This poll is a bit shallow and has no depth, according to this poll I support redistributing wealth. Not sure how it really judges everything, so few questions and so strangely linked.

    It's even worse than a cosmo quiz. At least cosmo quizzes usually involve orgasms.

    This quiz has absolutely no redeeming features.
