Which Best Describes Your Political Beliefs?
POLL: ?
 Liberal/Democrat
 Conservative/Republican
 Independent/Centrist
 Socialist
 Libertarian
 Anarchist
 Communist
 Blank (View Results) 



Not data mining. (Well, not for any organization, anyway.) I've noticed a few posts lately that wonder where GLPers stand politically, and I thought it might be time for a new poll.

For the record, libertarian here.

In case you need a little help, here's a quiz...

Re: Which Best Describes Your Political Beliefs?
The website given scores me as solidly Libertarian.
"God forbid we should ever be 20 years without such a rebellion. The people cannot be all, & always, well informed... If they remain quiet under such misconceptions it is a lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty... Let them take arms... What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots & tyrants. " - Thomas Jefferson in 1787

Re: Which Best Describes Your Political Beliefs?
So far, the results are not surprising. I knew we had a large number of libertarians here, or I probably would have moved on years ago. Kinda surprising no anarchists, though. Too cool to vote for anything? Out plotting blowing up Chicago? Suspicious of my motives? I can understand that. I know we have some of you, though.

Well I wouldn't call myself "extreme" either, but pairing the two together suggests that all other political philosophies acknolwedge the two most dominant as some fundamental, objective points in the political plane we have to use as a comparison to where we are. Quantitative difference.

Mine is entirely different and I see their parties as single-dimensional and simple-minded. They entirely bore me and so do their constant squabbles. I don't need to refer to them at all to define my political philosophy. QUALITATIVE difference. By the way, I like libertarians a bit better... individual liberty is a big part of what I believe, and needs more attention... I just think that it's more complicated than even that, too.

Thanks for acknowledging my stance though :)

Re: Which Best Describes Your Political Beliefs?
Libertarian is how I tested, after I voted "blank"
The maybes below pull me to the left.

I feel all current politicians are extremely to the right of me socially. I think anyone one should be able to do what ever they want to their own body, and all it encompasses. My rights end where your's begin. Anything else is prison!

Economically, money is what somebody says it is; it is just a random number. It is a way for somebody to maintain control over you, no matter your wealth.

Government should not censor speech, press, media, or internet.
agree

Military service should be voluntary. There should be no draft.
agree

There should be no laws regarding sex for consenting adults.
agree

Repeal laws prohibiting adult possession and use of drugs.
agree

There should be no National ID card.
agree

End "corporate welfare." No government handouts to business.
agree

End government barriers to international free trade.
maybe

Let people control their own retirement; privatize Social Security.
maybe

Replace government welfare with private charity.
maybe

Cut taxes and government spending by 50% or more.
agree
