I'm more Libertarian than this; I'm also voting for Obama.
Based on your answers, the tests concluded that you are permissive about people's social rights, but favour restrictions on entities' (people and companies) economic rights. So, to be very stereotypical about it, you'd be in favour of gay marriage, choice when it comes to abortions and laxer drugs laws, and in favour of environmental regulations on business, against companies being able to influence legislation with special interest groups and against companies being able to form monopolies. That sort of thing. If that doesn't seem accurate, then either your answers didn't reflelct how you feel or the test did a poor job of turning your answers into a political profile.

Thank you Minstrel. Some of what you said does reflect who I, such as the gay marriage, abortion choice, and environmental thing. But then some of it I just don't have an opinion about such as monopolies or laxer drug laws. But thanks for clearing it up, sorry for my ignorance.

Hmm, I thought I did. I came out at the borderline of Capitalist and Libertarian on the first one and the second one came out about halfway down the positive x axis while being slightly negative on the y-axis. I think my historical comparison was Milton Friedman, which is completely unsurprising.

In whichever economic system you think best, is my take. All the questions are looking for your ideals. So, in an ideal economy (whatever that is to you), should social justice be the foundation?
right. but in "scoring" that question, the term social justice is pretty vague and depending on the definition the results are very different. or maybe i'm just thinking about it the wrong way.

Bump. Given the policies enacted in these first few months of the Obama Administration, I thought this thread was worth bumping. In fact, I'd ask that this thread is stickied. There are new people contributing to this forum so that people who are new to this forum have the opportunity to take these tests and see the results of those of us who have already taken it.
