I was closest to John Paul II.

Explanation Of Results.

We wanted to get beyond the two catch-alls of American politics, the Democratic and Republican parties, and see where people actually stand. Parties can bring together people with marginally differing values and make collective action easier. But party platforms can misrepresent their constituents, and blind loyalty to a party can convince individuals to harbor inconsistent views.

The goal of this test was to exactly classify your personal politics, without the traditional labels. We avoided the edgy party issues and focused on fundamental values. Your score is a measure of what you believe in, economically and socially.

Higher permissiveness, on either axis, indicates a "live and let live" philosophy. Of course, we're almost conditioned in America, "Land of the Free", to think positively of such a philosophy. But practically speaking, permissiviness (or its opposite, regulation) can create any number of outcomes:

For example, on the economic axis, a highly permissive system, like the American system of the early 1900s, might mean things like low taxes and increased scientific innovation. It might also result, as it did back then, in unrestricted child labor and millions of poor people with black lung.

At the other end of the economic spectrum, a highly regulated system might conserve the environment, establish national health care, and eliminate poverty. But as we've learned from the Soviet system, extreme regulation can also lead to stagnation, sameness, and unhappiness.

A Democrat. Precisely what I suspected. Although I 'd like to file a complaint that this test says I'm "permissive" instead of liberal. That pisses me off.

That last bit seems to be disturbingly universal. Did the quiz maker really intend to imply that everyone has a well developed sense of right and wrong and a belief in economic fairness? And the range for "permissive" is equally meaningless.

For all who care, here was my law:
"I would dictate that... "pork" be hearby restrained, that it shall be used only on a limited scale and only for much needed improvements that the state/city can't (or won't) pay for."

Shouldn't they include an undecided section for those that are truly undecided? There were some issues that I had no inclination either way and had to pick a direction. Oh and I think it's funny that according to that graph more republicans voted for Kerry than Democrats for Bush.
