The second dimension will assess your social views, ranging from a belief in conservative nationalistic values to belief in greater civil liberties and social freedoms.
Your views will then be plotted on the below grid:

    • :lol: Very little. I’d have scored further in that direction except…..”free market” has become code for importing vast amounts of Chinese trash and exporting jobs.

      • Yup,though I think a lot of that is because of idiot politicians giving away the store.

        • For sure—but they’d use the number who scored that way to justify giving even more of the store away, ja?
          Anyway, I scored high on social freedom. :cool: Mostly because I don’t believe what I choose to ingest or inhale is any of the government’s damn business.

          • I’m LDP with a 10 score in economic freedom and 7 on social freedom.

            The only thing is I’m NOT used to being called a “liberal” :mrgreen:

          • Yup,I am always frustrated by the questions.No option to take a reasoned position,just the ones they throw out.

            My state had several bills come up proposing to legalize pot.Okay,fine I say,but none of the bills made any sense(probably written by pot heads).

            I answered several polls on the subject and none really had questions that fit my answer,except for one where they asked a question and left the reply to the respondent.

            My reply was simple,allow people to have pot and smoke pot,but not sell it.

  3. Right :!: A liberal in Australia is a conservative in America.

    Actually the Australian definition is more accurate because a traditional liberal of the 19th century variety would be a 21st century American conservative.
