I haven't seen this posted in a while - The Political Compass



For those DUers who've never seen this before, there is an online test that asks a series of questions designed to measure both your economic position on the political spectrum (X-axis left/right) as well as your authoritarian/libertarian position (Y-axis up/down). I remember taking this back in 2008. What surprised me is that I thought I might have moverd further toward the center. According to my chart (above) my political positions are in the same part of the ballpark as Ghandi.
