    I have 350 pages spread out in five different books discussing excatly that question. In short: most of the times that is not optimal.



    And to those saying its biased (which it is): See it as a way to place us in relation to eachother.



    And lastly: Some of the questions wasn´t even politically. The first generation immigrant integration has nothing to do with how I think the world should be.

    Here's another political quiz that has popped up here on AI a few times.



    It's set up by the libertarians, but seems to make some sense:

    libertarians = personal & economic self-government

    liberals = personal self-government

    conservatives = economic self-government

    authoritarians = neither



    [edit: heh "It's set up by the libertarians, but seems to make some sense" that was unintentional. But I guess it shows how I feel about libertarians.]

    Your Personal Self-Government Score is 100%.

    Your Economic Self-Government Score is 30%.



    I don't really agree 100% with either... but no test is perfect...

    Economic Left/Right: 1.50

    Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.13



    and...







    I've taken the political compass test a number of times. The libertarian score generally stays the same but the economic left/right score tends to wobble a bit. This is the furthest right I've scored to date. The furthest left I have scored was roughly a -2.

    I couldn't finish the test...it's utter crap. There are a ton of throwaway questions designed to provoke a "primal" response in their respective right/left wingers.
