Yup, I did it right. I am a rabid anti-socialist. I think that if a person earns something, whether they are a private citizen or a corporation, nobody but them has the right to determine what to do with the profits. I think it is none of the gov't's business. That was the mindset I had when taking it. The results, based on the algorithm used made me look like a stooge.

This monkey knows how to swing on the bars, and doesn't mind if other monkeys do also. I will fling poo, however, when another monkey tells me I must swing their way! LOL

Though it's kind of a fun little test, there are a couple of things I disagree with as well. For instance, equating conservatism with order and liberalism with equality.

I mean, yeah, I'm all for equality but not the kind that comes by hatchet, axe, and saw. I guess I see that as artificial equality... or equality by bringing everyone down to the lowest common denominator.

:shock: what did that mean?

A lot of people don't realize that they do believe in enforcing their beliefs and therefore they do believe in "order." But I know what you mean about equality...I scored lowest of low but really I do believe in it quite strongly, but not in legislating it like it is often done. For things to change, yes legislation did need to be passed to ged things going in the right direction like with racism and woman's rights...but I think now days it is doing more harm because it is greatly outdated in most parts of the country.

Scoring "low" on that test just means you're a libertarian.

By lowest common denominator I mean... well... let's use an example.

In the 1980's America had rich people and it had poor people. Some see that as inequality.
In the USSR they had done away with that.
As a result pretty much everybody in the USSR was poor except for a few government elites at the top.
Well, there was equality, but it wasn't particularly desirable.
