Albeit a bit simplistic, I thought this might be a wee bit of fun in this often very serious forum. And interesting for us to maybe learn a bit more about each other, because I know not everyone is strictly one side or the other in GU which I think is important. But really (as you will see from some of the questions) it's just for fun

Yes, it is. I am actually quite surprised at your result MSD, for some reason I thought you would swing more liberal, interesting! ------------------

Yeah (might get some hate for this) to be totally honest I vote conservative primarily for my business interests. I’m what you would call in the 1%.My liberalism is tainted with suffocating control. ‘You can have your freedom, on my fooking terms’ Other than that in a nice man 😉 IP: Logged |

Well, casting a vote based on what is best for your interests is fine. A business is a big responsibility and often a risk, so these things must be considered ------------------

@Shura and Belage, so you are both pretty much middle of the road (although I know you each have moved away from the left/right polarisation, understandably so when you really can't trust the system to be fair - I feel similarly - although I expect my results to swing liberal). I'll take the quiz and see. Go easy on me please  ------------------

Here are my results:You Are 30% Conservative, 70% Liberal Social Issues: 25% Conservative, 75% Liberal Personal Responsibility: 25% Conservative, 75% Liberal Fiscal Issues: 50% Conservative, 50% Liberal Ethics: 0% Conservative, 100% Liberal Defense and Crime: 50% Conservative, 50% Liberal Hmm, more balanced than I thought it would be. I suppose there may be other relevant issues that weren't covered in this quiz. If anyone sources a more in-depth quiz, feel free to post it and we can go deeper. ------------------

At heart I am a libertarian. My results were tilted by my percentage of 100% on the crime and defense spectrum. That one issue put me over to the conservative side. IP: Logged |
