Title: Everyone Who Cares About Their Political Views Should Take This Quiz

That is "The World's Smallest Political Quiz", a ten question quiz by the Libertarian Party that has five economical questions and five personsal questions, and based on the results, they determine which party is best for you.

As for me, I got Libertarian. My score was 70% on the Personal Questions, and 100% on the Economical Questions. Shockingly, I'm leaning more towards Conservatism than Liberalism, but what really counts is which one you actually make (Libertarian). Coincidentally, just a few days ago I decided to switch from the Democrat Party to the Libertarian Party.

I got Liberal.

PERSONAL issues Score is 70%.
ECONOMIC issues Score is 30%.

The little description was pretty much spot on for me:

LIBERALS usually embrace freedom of choice in personal
matters, but tend to support significant government control of the
economy. They generally support a government-funded "safety net"
to help the disadvantaged, and advocate strict regulation
of business. Liberals tend to favor environmental regulations,
defend civil liberties and free expression, support government action
to promote equality, and tolerate diverse lifestyles.

exactly the same as AliCal. o_o

I'm too out of my mind to really say if it fits me or not.

I got:

20% Personal
60% Economic

It says that I'm a conservative.

CONSERVATIVES tend to favor economic freedom, but frequently
support laws to restrict personal behavior that violates "traditional
values." They oppose excessive government control of business,
while endorsing government action to defend morality and the
traditional family structure. Conservatives usually support a strong
military, oppose bureaucracy and high taxes, favor a free-market
economy, and endorse strong law enforcement.

I am your exact opposite! I am liberal!

I'm a centrist, but farther to the right.

Which is what I like.  It puts me in the best spot possible for running a campaign.

Unsurprisingly, I got liberal, but it's a incomplete quiz, imo. Universal health care,  military purpose, the environment, and poverty were not covered, among other important issues. The ideals were certainly not based on what I would consider them.
