Took this test again:
 

Your political compass

Economic Left/Right: -6.38
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -3.13

I seem to have moved to the left slightly I think.
Spending more than I should on Prog since 2005

sh*t! I lost it. It was right where Gandhi's dot was LOL

 
 
Libertarian does not mean liberal. this is a typiucal US misunderstanding.
 
only in the US is a liberal seen as left wing.

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

I think I didn't have enough "strongly agree"s for my conservative votes that I should have, but I'm mostly down the center

As for me..

Economic Left/Right: -8.13
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -7.74


As usual, I can't post the pic of the graph, but I can assure you it's pretty impressive (though I don't know in whose exalted company I might be...) - and it's me as well!

This means, GR in full-on political firebrand mode.... Fly, you fools!WinkLOL

Now THIS is resurrecting an old thread. Been thinking about politics and remembered this and couldn't help myself.
 
My first score (a while back)
Economic:   - 6.88
Social:        -3.49
 
 

Economic Left/Right: -4.88
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -3.79

Authoritarian
Left





















Right
Libertarian
 
Shocked I can see a little bit of movement over time... but on the economy how did I shift 2 POINTS to the right??????
