Political alignment of Subsim members.

Sailor Steve · 08-24-08, 11:55 AM

Economic Left/Right: -0.12
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.87

Country of residence: United States of America.
Nationality: American (English and German descent).
Compass Results: See above.
Personal political views: Jeffersonian/Madisonian - we create government specifically to protect our rights, and laws specifically to protect ourselves from others.
Do you include yourself in a political party?: Never.

War in Iraq: A big mistake; but I don't hold with those who assign ulterior motives to those who started it.
Legalizing Marijuana: Legalize it. Prohibition never works.
Abortion: Her choice, not mine.
Gun Control: My choice, not yours.
Powers of central authority: Should be limited to dealing with other powers.
European Union: No opinion.
Gay marriage/adoption: Sure. I may not like it, but then I don't have to.
Death penalty: Yes. But be very, very sure that you have the right person.
Religion in schools: Absolutely not, except for comparative religion studies. If your religion can be taught in a public school as valid, why can Otumbu's or Hiratomi's? This includes teaching atheism as 'real'.

[edit] Interesting. I took it yesterday, but didn't get it posted correctly. I must have answered one question differently today, because then I was just a little to the 'right' of the vertical line, and now I'm just a little to the 'left'.

Are you sure you want to share that kind of information, ya'll?

What if we wanted to debate some of these challengable items of where people stand?

We have to start another thread, right?

Keeps from messing this one up, uh?

It's your call Swedish_Submarine ... you understand that you are the OP, right?

So just data and no debate?

That's the question ...
