1. I have an even shorter one
Do you believe all people are equal and deserve the best chance we can give them to succeed in life?
If yes you're a Democrat.
If no you're a Republican.

2. Left-Liberal


Left-Liberals prefer self-government in personal matters and central decision-making on economics. They want government to serve the disadvantaged in the name of fairness. Leftists tolerate social diversity, but work for economic equality.

3. Those questions are biased to make us all look libertarian
For an unbiased quiz, take the one at http://www.politicalcompass.org. It's a much longer quiz, the questions aren't loaded, and it will give you a better idea of where you stand.

6. Wow. I consider myself a centrist, but this test
indicates I'm left liberal (but close to the centrist square in the middle of the picture). Interesting.

7. this is silly Libertarian propaganda
"Economic self-government" - i.e., corporate control. It's ridiculous. This "quiz" has been recycled since the 1980s.
