AAAAarrrrgh, I scored as a socialist again! I guess I just hate that label, coming from a former communist country and all.

Then again, I have to say, there is a difference between values (ideals) and policies one would choose. Do I believe everyone should have free healthcare? Sure, yes, that would be nice. But do I think it's actually feasible? No, unfortunately no. So what these tests measure actually does not really translate into real choices.


Your Score

Your scored -5 on the Moral Order axis and 1.5 on the Moral Rules axis.

Matches

The following items best match your score:

System: Socialism
Variation: Moral Socialism
Ideologies: Social Democratism, Activism
US Parties: Green Party
Presidents: Jimmy Carter (92.03%)
2004 Election Candidates: Ralph Nader (95.06%), John Kerry (82.18%), George W. Bush (47.29%)
Statistics

Of the 165749 people who took the test:

0.8% had the same score as you.
27.1% were above you on the chart.
65.7% were below you on the chart.
83.6% were to your right on the chart.
11.6% were to your left on the chart.

for the record, i soooooo dislike Nader and would never vote for the green party in the US (elsewhere, maybe. In a proportional representation system). Grrrr.
But also Bush and Kerry, so, whatever.

You are best described as a:


Democrat


You exhibit a very well-developed sense of Right and Wrong and believe in economic fairness.

Got me wrong, except for the kind words about fairness.


Or could it be that there really isn't that much difference between the Democrats and the Republicans? Hm... Try these politicals tests and compare their results to the one you just got:

If you come up with Democrat again, then possibly there really isn't that much difference between the two parties.

liberal... in american sense? as in leftist? or liberal as in classical liberalism, which is about individual freedoms and free market and all... because in that case it's true.

then again, what KIND of a democrat? liberal democrat? social democrat? 'democrat' as such is a too vague term.

nope, i don't like their labels one bit. they are inaccurate.

Didnt we all do this one already, under a different name?

The smallest political quiz, or something?

Craven had a lot to say about it, I believe. It was devised by Libertarians?
