I consider myself a Canadian Liberal, which is in the middle with a slight left lean.

I am right wing, because the Political Compass said so. Slightly right wing, I'm close to the middle.

It depends really, my ideas and beliefs may change from time to time. But normally I'm more conservative than anything else.

I'd pretty much say I'm at the centre. But one thing is for sure, I can't stomach psuedo-intellectual liberalism.

EDIT: And I'm also annoyed when it is naturally assumed that if you are liberal then you are intelligent.

I'm right wing conservative. I feel the country needs to be set in the standards and morality it was founded upon. I do not think it right to force my morality on others who are not of my faith however (that doesn't mean I won't state my opinion and if you claim my faith I sure as heck will correct you though). I think there are more important things than forcing my morality on others like spreading the good news about Jesus Christ (sorry for spiritualizing the topic).

I took that test and was surprised at the results... I consider myself right wing as the issues that are most important to me are rightwing. Many other things I'm almost apathetic.

Right wing. You see, my right wing is slightly stronger than my left, so I would be considered right-winged.

here's mine

basically i believe that you and corporations should be able to do what you want as long as you're not decieving anyone or effecting other peopl's freedom. Also the state should only provide the most basic of needs, water, sanitation, roads and the most basic communication as well as education.

I don't want to do this over, my coordinates are:

Economic Left/Right: 1.0

Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.54

So that's right wing 1 square, five and a half squares down. So I'm a slightly right wing libertarian :P Close to Markop

I quess I'm pretty much centre, a little to the right in the Netherlands where I live. That should translate to something like extreme left in the USA.

That's odd. You find we're better off giving our money to others that use it to buy liquor and aren't willing to work because they're lazy and they get free money from taxpayers?

Of course that happens, just like there are bad cops and teachers. But I do not think it's the majority, and I'd like to see the welfare system set up so people work at learning a trade. But my core belief is we cannot ignore the less fortunate in society. An example: I have my kids under controll, my wife and I are here, doing our jobs to raise them, but I can't say the same for kid X, so everything possible needs to be done to make his life better so he doesn't come to school with a gun at 8 years old. Dramatic, yes, but it happens.

Alcohol helps people? WIth all due respect to those that actually try at life, there are many, MANY others that don't when they have the ability to do so. However, they don't because they recieve free money. There are programs that people can go into and find jobs but they dont because they recieve free money. People that are on Welfare that do work should have living conditions based on their anual salary until they continue to progress.

I think welfare should exist but not in the way it does. Too many people are on it. Give it to fewer people who are actually qualified for it. I think it would be a wiser investment for us to help these people find employment instead of just giving them money.

Also, if you drop out of High School you should be disqualified from recieving welfare.

Welfare actually do that, they also help high school dropouts get their GED or high school diploma, you people should get a little more educated before commenting, no offence of course.

edit: they also take out your benefits if you don't use the programs, or exploit it.

Yea, and welfare also helps high school dropouts afford cigarettes and alcohol, when dropouts can apply for grants that are given to people who don't achieve a certain income.

Read my edit you actually get your benefits taken out if you exploit the system heck you can even go to jail, it's not a perfect system i agree but it's better than let people die of hunger. This is not a 3rd world country man...
