It's American, but if you're in another country then think of how the questions apply to you.

I'm a social liberal and an economic liberal and I'm best described as....

A socialist!

    The whole thing is a bag o'shite. It places anarchists as free market capitalists. Whoever wrote that quiz is seriously politically misinformed. :eek:

    The whole problem with simplistic tests like this one is that they ignore context. For instance - " Protesters cause more good than harm." How am I supposed to answer that? What are they protesting against or for? Its stupid.

    Yes, I thought that. It is a case of over-simplification and lack of understanding of hte subject matter. Why am I placed near Stalin when I didn't say anything about the limitation of freedom of speach and action? Ho hum.

    it's based on what is currently being taught to "US" students about politics - with left wing government on one side and right wing government on the other. The idea of no government never gets brought up -

    Have an article about it -

    However true anarchists would spit on the concept of free market capitalism and nasty obsession with money, wealth and possessions free market capitalists embrace.
