[drumkeeran]

Our local Sunday paper posted this site that lets you answer questions about your various views and then gives you a comparitive analysis to past and current political and economic thinkers.

Very interesting, check it out.

this post probably belongs here. Maybe not as highbrow as the political analysis site but definitely an interesting few minutes. Thanks again, Quizilla!

Socialist - You believe the free market can be beneficial, but that a large and powerful state is necessary to redistribute the wealth of the top classes to those of the bottom. You also think that basic utilities and trasportation should be publicly owned. Your historical role model is Eugene Debs.

I did a Quizilla test a few weeks back. It claimed I was a communist and showed me a picture of Stalin. I was deeply offended, not by the allegation that I'm a communist, but by the idea that Stalin is respresentative of communism!

[Dreadsox]

Economic Left/Right 1.05
Authoritarian/Libertarian 0.05


Do I get a price for being the only person posting here that is on the positive side in both categories?

There are a lot of Negative people here...LOL :WINK:

Well Dread I'll venture to say this poll does suggest you are a conservative. (As dbear recently stated)
And it does suggest my opinions fall in the liberal category.

Yes, but I am just barely there. I was laughing after I took it because I am almost smack dab dead center with no leanings in any direction.

Economic Left/Righ = -7.25

Good for you Dread! I was hoping we weren't all screaming liberals!!


(Although I am proud to say that I'm in the same quadrant as Gandhi!)

I sympathize/agree with your criticism. I used to TA history at my grad school and it would always piss me off when students would equate stalin with communism. I'm sorry you had to get that photo!

I like how it gives you book suggestions as well. I've always wanted to read "Fast Food Nation." Perhaps I'll pick it up.
