I didn't post my numbers because I took the test on a different computer and I forgot them by the time I posted here, but they were something like -4.2, -4.5... so I was pretty squarely in the bottom left quadrant of the graph.
Isn't the graph out of 10? Soo you were moderately left libertarianist....Not THAT Extreme(That would have been a mirror of Stalin)

Sick as in cool. Come on, you should know I like the extremes by now.

And thanks, didn't bother to check when I was posting.

Pick MOAR!

Not enuff.

Since we're kinda talking about politics and what not. Today was like, my first real lecture of Comm 2aa3. And the prof went on and on and on about tax evasion and stuff. And the more he talked, the more I was like, "...Damn that's gonna be me."

Yay anarchy.

You know, for someone that scored 0.12, you run your mouth alot about fence sitting.

No.. I think you meant X... Go back and read what you said. :p You had it right the first time.

x-axis = horizontal

y-axis = vertical

Reeves was almost right on the x-axis

EDIT: I just realized that reeves threw one of us off with his "I picked left" comment... :p

Another left libertian here!!

Economic Right/Left:-5.38
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -2.00


I did notice that on the sample grid they gave us... I'm almost in the same spot as Gandhi. So I guess the odd combination of answers isn't all that bad

My results: http://photos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos...3881 57_n.jpg

Ya, but that's about money crap. I don't care about the free market.
