I remember doing this test a year or two ago and my results were suggesting that I was about as far left as it was possible to go. These days I've mellowed a bit... haha
Economic Left/Right: -8.38
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.54 |

I've become less left-wing economically, though I have setup my own business since I took the test last... but I stay about the same on authoritarian issues.
Now where's my slave with my afternoon tiffin'? |

That was interesting, but some of the questions were worded quite strangely. I don't think they can figure out where I really stand with those questions. Maybe they should work on them a bit more, but it still was a nice idea. I turned out right of center just how I've said I was all along, though some hard left folks would blindly call me a neocon, which goes to show you those people don't even know what a neocon is...lol! |

I agree with that, pirty. They did seem to be worded from a Left bias. It's like saying "Do you agree that babies should be killed?" as the sole question in a poll about abortion rights. |
