Political Leaning

Tyler Beckett Politics, Canada, Quiz 6 Comments

I have made up a pretty neat little script that calculates your political leaning depending on your answers. Give it a try, you might surprise yourself, you might not. Feel free to leave your Personal and Economic score in the comments, this could be fun!

The following test is a recreation of the World's Smallest Political Quiz. I have simply made it more interactive, which means less time for you to do math and more time for you to look around!

Ok, the gist of this is:

  • Y - Yes, you agree completely.
  • M - Maybe, you neither agree nor disagree. Maybe you need more information.
  • N - No, you do not agree at all.

Keeping the above in mind, Here come the questions:

Are you a self-governor on PERSONAL issues? Government should not control radio, TV or the press (including books):
Y: M: N:
Drug laws do more harm than good and should be repealed:
Y: M: N:
There should be no laws or regulations concerning sex between consenting adults:
Y: M: N:
Private clubs and organizations should be free to admit or refuse any member:
Y: M: N:
Government should not interfere in arrangements between doctors and patients:
Y: M: N:
Are you a self-governor on ECONOMIC issues? Businesses and farms should operate without government subsidies:
Y: M: N:
