Where do You Belong Politically

[ermitonto]

Here is a good site for seeing where you stand politically. It finds your position on a chart organized according to the traditional left-right spectrum as well as an up-down authoritarian/anti-authoritarian spectrum.

2 points to the right with a .41 to libertarian....talk about being "middle of the road"!
Good questions...to bad they didn't have a "neutral" answer. May have made the 0,0 mark.

While I agree that our country would seriously benefit from a third - or even fourth - party, our system of government won't ever allow it. Because of the winner-take-all format most states use in the Electoral College, a third party, ostensibly one that's either more liberal or conservative than what we have now, would simply deny votes to the major party most closely associated with it (like Nader was to the Democrats, only on a larger scale).

The only way an independent candidate can succeed nowadays is if he or she has loads of money. And unless you want a big lottery winner running things, anyone that wealthy is bound to have serious corporate ties that would make he or she just like what we have now.

I think that's why the only countries with any success at having a multi-party systems are one with a parliamentry system of government. That way, no matter who wins or loses, votes translate into legislative seats so everyone is represented.

Howdy ermitonto,

I've taken that test,twice,and I score in the middle of the authoratative Right..but thanx to some of y'all daggum liberals actually making sense at times,I'm starting to drift more to the center...dang it ! lol

Have a good one ....

I'm just the opposite, way out there on the anti-authoritarian left, but it'll nudge me to the right a little because I believe in gun rights and stuff like that.

Very Interesting, I would have thought myself going to the left but wound up 1.75 to the right with a -2.21 to Libertarian. Good one.

Funny thing is that for probably 20 years of my adult life I would have fallen on the right side of the chart, now I line up with Nelson Mandela and Gandhi. Nobody can say I didn't give Conservatism a chance....I voted Republican in 1972, 76, 80, 84, 88, and 92. Then a revelation came over me....those folks have gone toooo far to the extreme. They are no longer conservatives when it comes to money, only when it comes to dictating what people can and cannot do in their personal lives.

I'll stick to being alligned with Nelson Mandela and be proud of that!!!

A new report released by the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (Sipri) an independent research institute, just revealed the extraordinary sums spent on weapons in 2004 - the sixth successive year in which arms spending increased.
The global total spent on munition topped $1 trillion!!!
In contrast, the amount spent on arms with $455bn, an increase from
2003 of 12 per cent.
Britain, the second largest arms spender, spent $47bn - a tenth of the
U.S. total.
This is the biggest scandal on earth and the biggest problem for the future of Humanity.
1 Trillion is 1 billion of billions of billions of $ wasted for nothing while
scientists have no money to make researches.
With only 1 year of this stupid military spending there would be no more
1 million children on earth starving to death, and a cure for AIDS and
for cancer would have been found.
The militaries of the earth are the cancer of Humanity.
