You are a

Social Liberal
(80% permissive)

and an...

Economic Conservative
(65% permissive)

You are best described as a:

Libertarian (65e/80s)


You exhibit a very well-developed sense of Right and Wrong and believe in economic fairness.


As usual, the test was badly designed. For instance it asks whether I think the life of one American is worth that of several foreigners. What British person could possibly subscribe to that?! Nor do I especially care if American jobs move to other countries. In fact I'd be rather glad to see a few of them come to my country.

And those end questions... god, so stupid! "What's crucial to agree on, with a match?" - NOTHING. But you don't get that option.

That's the exact same tagline I got, and the damn thing called me a totalitarian.

Once again, you can't interpret multiple-choice answers to critical-thinking, analytical questions... it just doesn't work.

Those last questions don't count towards you. They are just for the stats at the end.

And yeah that line on right and wrong is just stupid since it does it every time.

And it says to place what ever country you are instead of USA.

Thats a better test but it also takes a lot longer. I posted this one since it only takes 5 minutes.
What does defeat mean to you?

Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

Your political compass
Economic Left/Right: -4.75
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.56

negative numbers refer to "leftist" tendencies - quite a turnaround from the first test, which called me a totalitarian, eh?

Yeah this test has been rotated 90 degrees. Way different.
