Where does AO lie on the Political Compass?

[Rooster]

"the left is really focused on benefitting everybody while forcing many to sacrifice something (whether it's the right to own an ak47 or higher taxes). the right is focused on benefitting certain individuals (capital gains tax cuts, etc) while leaving others completely ignored. "

LOL! This is the funniest thing I have ever read. The left is all about the people, lets benifit everyone! Not quite. The left is about stealing from one to give to another. The left wants what they are too stupid or lazy to achieve. The right beleives that you need to earn what you recieve, and a man who does nothing, deserves nothing. But its nice you think so highly of yourself and your cuase, even if you are completely delusional.

I have to question how these tests produce their results. The things say I am a leftist libertarian, and should vote for Kerry. Yeah, right.

[nastymag]

Economic Left/Right: -7.88
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.87


and i already know who i am going to vote for ( Clark )
at least in the primary

How this works:

You go to the site: www.politicalcompass.org . You "take the test". You get a score, two numbers; example (-0.12, -8.14) Then you come back to AO and post your score. After a few a few people start posting their 'alignment' I'll put up a graph with everyone's placement on it. I did this with another forum and it came out nice. Have fun .

btw, thats me: (-0.12, -8.14)

I'll tell ya' what. I started taking this, but the questions are asked with such an obvious bias I didn't even bother to finish. It's obvious what side of the spectrum these guys land on.

i would argue that as you get older you get more concerned about what affects you directly rather than what affects everybody as a whole. this is also proven very much by the big rightwinger-old-folk() on this board. the majority of right wing issues are focused upon what affects individuals directly, anyway, so there's really no point in arguing it.

I would say that my conservative (not republican) beliefs are ONLY about what benefits society as a whole the most.

The only thing I believe in that directly benefits ME is my right to succeed or fail on my own.

econ -2.5

I guess that means I am a bad ***. We should start a petition to stop woman sufferage, i mean, you know, suffering sucks, so...
