Economic: -5.00
Authoritarian/Liberal: -6.82

I'd consider myself a little more moderate than this, but I think some of the statements were made with loaded wording, so that I'd think "even though that's not a god-awful idea, anyone that actually said -that- to me I'd hit in the mouth with a brick." Did anyone else notice that sort of thing?

In broader terms it's a good test though. Adding a Y-axis makes everything better.

I'm a reactionary.

I think it's fine to be socially liberal--which I am--but to think that liberals have economically sound policies is an unjustifiable assertion.

Nearest Gandhi, but not as far to the left. I'd agree that there's some loaded wording in some questions, and some questions I neither agreed nor disagreed, but felt it depended on the individual person.

Ah, took the test again, changing the answers on the ones I was unsure about.

Smack dab in the middle of the "Libertarian Left" quarter. Almost exactly where some guy named "Ken Livingstone" is.
