Re: World's Smallest Political Quiz
Left-Liberal, apparantly.
60%, 0%
(Political, economic)
It still has the same problem of factual rather than opinion based questions, which affects all tests of this type.

Re: World's Smallest Political Quiz
According to your answers, your political philosophy is on the border of left-liberal and authoritarian.

Re: World's Smallest Political Quiz
Libertarian.
Although the bit about the minimum wage causing unemployment sounds rubbish so I voted no to that, and the end user fee doesn't make any sense to me so I left it in the middle.
Your Personal Self-Government Score is 100%.
Your Economic Self-Government Score is 60%.
edit : This test is particularly biased, rather unexpectedly given the source.

Re: World's Smallest Political Quiz
I answered yes or no for all of them, although the only truthful answer is 'Maybe', because all the answers depend on the social conditions at the point where you would implement them.

Re: World's Smallest Political Quiz
100% 90% but the test is oversimplified and a bit silly. In particular:
"People 'should' be allowed to live wherever they like". Should is a pretty horrible word - obviously they 'should' be able to, but there are pragmatic factors as well, which depend on the system as a whole.
"End taxes. Pay for services with user fees". This is a rather binary statement. A yes vote here could be taken as being an endorsement of anarcho-capitalism just as much as an endoresement of libertarianism.

Re: World's Smallest Political Quiz
The first part just skimmed the surface. What about medicine and science. Gay Marriage :-/ and the like.
Foriegn policy is important because im not going to have som dim-witted democrat stick his finger up his ass, getting a b/j from one of his interns while a terrorist group is plotting our distruction.

1. The political difference between the Democrats and the Republicans is tiny.
2. I didn't see Bush doing much to stop the attack on the world trade centre, even though (supposedly) he knew about it.
3. I'd prefer someone to do nothing that actively cause the problem.

Re: World's Smallest Political Quiz
Libertarian (100/100). Some oversimplifications, but given the format (World's smallest political quiz) I guess that's to be expected. Better a short vague test than a long vague test.

30% self
80% economic
The Eco seems right but not self. This test is far to small and clearly is not unbias since its made by a liberterian group.
For example, if they had asked about gun control my self proably would have gone up.

We use percision guided bombs to kill terrorist who are only a few meters away from muslem temples. I'd hardly say thats heavy handed.
In addition, if we control the middle easy, (or atleast have an extreame amount of influence in what is heard/seen/and being educated by nations, then we will have a better chance of educateing muslims who havent decided rather to except freedom or terrorism, into excepting freedom.

It's a fairly widely known supposition, and Hey? What's that? Suppositions by their very definition don't need evidence? Freeeeow!

The enormous number of civilian casualties would like a word with you.
Or at least they would if they hadn't been killed by american weaponry.

If by 'controlling the middle east', you mean 'controlling the capital city through immense military presence, whilst the rest of the country is run by the warlords, in the style of more than a century ago', you'd be bang on.

The BBC overstates civilian causulties. Id suggest nbc for better news..along with CNN. The BBC also no not follow generally accepted guidelines for what to show/not show on TV....

Define enormous--comparing and contrasting with previous armed conflicts. If your definition is that even 1 is too many then nevermind.

About 10,000 (By May of last year, there were over a thousand known civilian deaths and nearly a thousand more suspected in Baghdad alone. Add in another 8,000 wounded in the capital, too). Considering the scale of the war, it's pretty huge.

The tory party is more central now, so I don't see how you can particularly argue.
