Most politicians go where the money is. Sure there are good politicans but there are too many bad ones that only think with their wallet. And some politicans like the ones here in my dear Sweden have their mouth so far up EU's arse that it have been lost. I'm ashamed for how f*cking weak our politicians are. Great, now I'm angry! O_o Ugh, I hate politics.

I lived in the States for three years so I get the gist of it. Also I read many American articles, as I find that things get sorta boring in my flat.

RE: POLITICS

The test is biased because it's designed by Americans. I ended up in the lower left quadrant, but I'm sure I would've ended up in the lower right if the questions had been written by Swedes.

I've actually taken this test several times before, with slightly different results. But no, I don't have any older results saved.

Spoiler below!

Economic Left/Right: -4.38
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.59

Other than that, I love debating politics, but I prefer talking about specific issues rather than ideology and general situations.

You know, I don't think this survey makes enough distinctions between certain ideologies. I score pretty high (technically low) on the Libertarian scale but I wouldn't affiliate myself politically like most self-proclaimed libertarians. Rather, I'm supportive of authority or government involvement on certain subjects, but it really doesn't ask much about them. The best comparison I've heard is probably as follows: libertarianism focuses on the least government restriction, while my liberal humanism focuses on the least government oppression.

I disagree with this, I'm much closer to center than that.

A lot of questions I answered were a bit vague in my opinion. For instance, public schools should prep you for careers as opposed to jobs IMO, but that wasn't an option.

Huh, oddly enough I actually just started reading a book about that yesterday, sounds like it was pretty fucked.
