    I thought this was posted before, but I can't find it.

    http://www.politicalcompass.org/test

    My results were:
    Economic Left/Right: -3.88
    Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -0.05

    Post yours.

    Based upon those questions, that seems about right. However, I didn't find the questions to cover a broad enough range of topics.

    Our race has many superior qualities, compared with other races

    i find this question strange. do i think white people are better than black people or do i think that the human race is better than squirrels?

    (the answer is no to both btw)

    It still needed more questions probably...

    My results weren't super accurate (how important various issues were, varied a lot for me). :O

    Wow, I'm the most socially conservative person so far. I don't even know how that's possible.

    The problem with this test is that you really can't be "libertarian" and left of center economically. That's an oxymoron by definition.

    This seems spot on. I've always considered myself socially liberal and financially conservative.
