I'm in just about the same spot as the Dalai Lama. Pretty good company, if you ask me.

Answer 2

This test is biased. The questions force you to either A) answer in the liberal qay, or B) Make an answer you cannot possibly comfortable with.

For instance:
"If economic globalisation is inevitable, it should primarily serve humanity rather than the interests of trans-national corporations."
-Now I believe that Corproations can do a lot of good for the world. Do all of them? No, of course not. But how do you have globalisation without corporations? You don't. What if you don't believe globalisation is inevitable? How do you andwer the question then?

"Controlling inflation is more important than controlling unemployment."
-Controlling Inflation helps control unemployment. If the value of the dollar stays steady, and employer is more likely to invest in more employees. Now looking at the question. How can one possibly in good conscious answer in agreement? These issues are so intertwined that you can't look at one and not the other.


I don't need a silly test to tell me where I stand Politically. Economically I am a free-market Conservative. Socially I am Libertarian, to an extent.
