My score is at home but I'm pretty much dead center in the left bottom box, close to the Dalai Lama land.

An interesting distraction from work... but obviously flawed from my point-of-view.

In any event, I scored:

Economic Left/Right: -3.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.69

I'm just about kissing the Dalai Lama ass, if he's bent over facing towards the left, that is...

Or as Curly would say... "Why soitenly... nyuk nyuk nyuk..."

I have forgotten my score but the red dot was two left two up in the top LHS side quadrant. I think that represents the perfectly balanced sensible well adjusted person that I know myself to be. OK !

My facetious nature is often misleading...Surely I wasn't serious. I could actually envision you as a secretary at the headquarters for the ''Freedom Road Socialist Organization''

I scored about a 6 and -3, Right/Libertarian. It seems my wife is a damn Commie though

Dunno about that. It does seem I have a bit of social brain-washing to deal with. I'm blaming a left bias in the phrasing of the questions.

I always get a kick out the terminology they choose to use in these things...
Military action that defies international law
.
Because corporations cannot be trusted
.
From each according to his ability, to each according to his need"
.
people who simply manipulate money
.
predator multinationals
.
unethically exploiting
.
but these days it's going too far.
