Not everyone fits on this poll. Haven't you heard of Kropotkin, Rand, etc? They wouldn't fit in either.

um, you realize that there is more to poltical ideology than Liberalism or Conservatism. And even within those two, there's a bunch of differenct ideologies. i.e Classical and Welfare Liberalism, both noticeable different.

So, clearly, this little poll of yours is very flawed.

He's talking about the two American political parties. Not all their little subdivisions. I don't know of any type of liberal that would say they are conservative. When given a broad category they would pick liberal.

The poll is not flawed at all. It's just more broad then you'd like it.

Do me a favor and stop attempting to tout yourself as a figure of intelligence. Because that's not what you are.

If this poll had a third choice that said "Neither, for I am not a sheep" then I would have voted. Of course to look at my state you might not think so. Compulsory military service and the death penalty apparently are not enough to tip the odds, while second-choice voting is enough to put a "liberal" tag on me.

I'm very conservative. I believe in:

1)A non-interventionist foreign policy
2)NO foreign aid!
3)Keep the federal government out of welfare, education, law enforce-
ment, civil rights, etc. (leave these things to the states)
4)NO Federal Reserve or IRS!
5)NO income tax!
6)NO entangling alliances!
7)A balanced budget
8)The elimination of every 'Department' except State, Treasury, and
possibly Justice
9)Drastic cuts in government spending
10)Split the Department of Defense back into the Departments of War,
Navy, and Air Force
11)NO business regulations
12)NO creeping socialism
13)END diplomatic relations with all countries that still consider us 'the
main enemy'
14)Bring back the House Un-American Activities Committee
15)Strong border protection
16)Limited government (i.e., no Patriot Act, Social Security, etc.)
17)Gold and silver-backed currency
18)Remove all subversives and security risks from the federal government
and tighten security to ensure that no (or at least, as few as possible)
anti-Americans make their way into the government
19)Keep the federal government out of religious matters, leaving them to
the states
20)Leave marriage laws to the states
21)Repeal the 17th Amendment (direct election of senators)
22)End government aid to the states and grant much more power to the
states and local governments
23)NEVER go to war unless the country has been attacked and we are
100% certain we are fighting against the right enemy
24)Keep the State Department out of military business; let military men,
rather than politicians, plan and execute our wars
25)NEVER go to war without a congressional declaration of war

I really see politics as divided into 5 sections: Liberal, Conservative, Liberitarian, Authoritarian, and Centrist. Anything else can more or less go into those 4.

There'd be much more wealth without govt tax/regulation/inflation and things would be cheaper due to competition and deregulation.

It was not laissez faire. The state caused the depression with it's meddling, not the free market. FDR prolonged the depression for a decade and somehow got credited with fighting it! Sheesh.

In Canada, everyone said, "Let it be, it'll even itself out." It didn't work. Finally, people realized that they had to provide for the poor.

An old Tommy Douglas story even suggests that recession is caused by the rich not wanting quite so much.

I very much doubt the Canadians had a laissez faire policy. Even if they did, the fault for causing the recession lies with the US govt. The welfare state does not help the poor.

Well, how would you help the homeless? Although, we probably should start a new thread.

I'd build cheap houses 'cause there'd be no elaborate housing regulations or zoning restrictions. Good for me, good for them (and bad for the state and it's big business groupies).

The govt programs to provide houses have knocked down more than they've built. Plus they build relatively expensive ones. If you think the govt helps the homeless then why are there still loads of homeless? There's been welfare for, what, 70 years now?

'Pologies for the thread jacking.

um, you realize that there is more to poltical ideology than Liberalism or Conservatism. And even within those two, there's a bunch of differenct ideologies. i.e Classical and Welfare Liberalism, both noticeable different.

So, clearly, this little poll of yours is very flawed.

He's talking about the two American political parties. Not all their little subdivisions. I don't know of any type of liberal that would say they are conservative. When given a broad category they would pick liberal.

The poll is not flawed at all. It's just more broad then you'd like it.

Do me a favor and stop attempting to tout yourself as a figure of intelligence. Because that's not what you are.

I'm pretty much like Roach-Busters, although I'm not sure that view can be characterized as "conservative"(as many conservatives have betrayed the old ideals and embraced bigger, more authoritarian, government. ) My own political outlook is basically Constatutionalist.


Me too. I personally prefer the term 'constitutionalist' over 'conservative.'

Fascists don't believe in free market/capitalist economy, fat ass! Even if I am a fascist that is still better than being a subhuman anarchist.

I also have great respect for intellectuals, especially those of the natural sciences.That's not actually true. While the vast majority of fascist parties have followed a corpratist economic model it's not neccesary. The British National Socialist Party is an example of a fascist party that believes in the free market system.

Political parties often change their views on a certain number of issues to "suit the times". I can guarantee you that I am NOT a fascist scumbag.

I am trying to see how many more liberals play nationstates compared to conservatives. I myself am a Conservative. This Poll is about what Liberal and Conservative is the two really major groups in America and there are many divisions of each. I was wanting just a general idea of which side people consider themselves.

The General Forums in NS is swamped by liberals and hippies.
Absolutely. We're here to eat your babies and force you to engage in inter-racial same-sex marriages. Fear us.

Go on! You will have to use force if that is necessary and we will still beat you. Liberalism is a corrupt state of mind and thus, weak. The day a liberal subhuman comes knocking on my door- forcing me to engage in his subhuman practices is the day I'll have my Type 79 SMG ready to mow that S.O.B down!!!

I am not a racist but my nationalism is one inspired by Hitler. Hitler beleived that all German speaking peoples should be united. If that's the case of Germans why not the downtrodden Chinese?! They have a greater history of civlization than the Germans, yet they leack the vision of racial unity and glory.

I am also very pro-Semitic, admiring the undying nationalism of the Jews, despite a millenia of wandering, homelessness and persecution they can manage to reclaim and rebuild their former empire and even revenge on the races that drove them out off their home.

Therefore, you do not label me as a Nazi!

The Chinese were moderate in actual communist economics and they are not communist anymore, so it cannot be established as a communist state. The Type 79 was made after the Open and Reform so that can't be labelled as of communist manufacture.

:roll: I personally never ever called China or the USSR true communist- however here you are simply trying to use whatever fuel you can to attempt to maintain some credibility.

Now look- Lets call them "Authoritarian Socialist" or "State Capitalist". While they allow free market economics to some degree, there is still a large amount of government control over the economy. Therefore- I have thrown your argument about *ahem* "liberals" (pretty broad that, huh?) being subhuman in your face, yet you refuse to adknowledge this. China is still left-wing economically, and they still teach Marx in schools. Further more, the only party allowed is the Communist party. Yet, they aren't "subhuman" because they're "not communist anymore". Now to me, that is pretty flawed thinking on your part. Oh yes- And the gun is made in a state-owned factory.

Like I said, I don't think China is doing socialism correctly. However it is wrong to assume that they are a 100% capitalist society.

Honestly, do you have the same opinion of Vietnam as subhuman followers of socialist thought? After all, their "doi moi" restructuring makes them about as socialist as china...yet I suspect that somehow, because they have actually fought against America, you might hold a grudge there. Not accusing, just wondering.

So what if they still teach Marx (and his pipe dreams) at school, no Chinese person ever believed in it and I can guarantee you that such nonsense will be thrown out off the curriculum in two decades.

The image of today's China is not how I view as a perfect society. But I can assure you that I am not satisfied with the country of my birth.

I don't exactly see them as slaves, I see them as a threat the the Chinese race with their ever so increasing encroachment of Chinese territories and their desire to destroy China and enslave the Chinese.
