My opinion of it runs pretty much the same as TABs.

It's a Libertarian site and they are trying to show a more Libertarian slant to recruit people to their cause.  It's a cause I don't necessarily disagree with mind you.

It's stacked....I scored like most did but agree (God forbid) with TAB's assessment, in theory.

I need very little from our Government with the exception of the Military, the guy that fills the potholes in the street, and my future SS check which I wish wasn't the case but I've been paying into the system for 38 years and I want my money back.  What they do in the future for my kid is her fight.

As I've said before, if Congress never writes another law, I'd be content in that knowledge.

 Be honest.
Post what you thought, and what you got.

Your PERSONAL issues Score is 80%

Your ECONOMIC issues Score is 100%

According to your answers, the political group that agrees with you most is...

Libertarians
support maximum liberty in both personal and economic matters. They advocate a much smaller government; one that is limited to protecting individuals from coercion and violence. Libertarians tend to embrace individual responsibility, oppose government bureaucracy and taxes, promote private charity, tolerate diverse lifestyles, support the free market, and defend civil liberties.


The Washington Post thinks this is great, personally I think it's a load of crap dreamed up by some one like FQ looking to justify a multi million dollar grant.


I got the same score you did.  And if I were a betting man, I'd bet the 20% shortage in the PERSONAL section came from both of us giving the same response to the same question.
I love waking up every morning knowing that Donald Trump is President!!

I'm having a real problem with political identity these days.  I'm a lifelong Republican who has come to feel abandoned, ignored and marginalized by his party.  While I guess I lean more toward the Libertarian viewpoint, the pragmatist in me feels the need to remain a registered (R) to have a soupcon of influence in trying to move the party back toward the ground it left in it's charge to the left.

In short, I may not be leaving the party, but I most definitely feel as though the party has left me.   :(

Dude - We, along with the Founding Fathers and many 19th century "carpenters" of this nation, have been marginalized by an instant gratification population and main stream media  >:(

The people are slaves to comfort and convenience. There are no MEN willing to trade their recliner for a fox hole to save the country from the crooks, liars and communists who call them selves Dems or the wishy washy Poofs who call themselves Reps.
The apparent front runner for the Rep nomination is Romney, an anti gun pro health care RINO who has already lost once to McCain. It looks to me like the RNC wants to throw the election to BO Again just to spite the TEA Party.

No surprise  here.  I also lost points on the International Trade Barriers question.  My belief is that we impose tariffs or barriers equal to those imposed by the other country upon us.  While this would take some consideration of balance so that the relative economic impact is the same.  If that country wishes for more favorable conditions on our simply reduce the restrictions against us.

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
— Daniel Webster
