Your PERSONAL issues Score is 80%. Your ECONOMIC issues Score is 90%.
According to your answers, the political group that agrees with you most is...
LIBERTARIANS support maximum liberty in both personal and
economic matters. They advocate a much smaller government; one
that is limited to protecting individuals from coercion and violence.
Libertarians tend to embrace individual responsibility, oppose
government bureaucracy and taxes, promote private charity, tolerate
diverse lifestyles, support the free market, and defend civil liberties.

Ya, I took it a while back and surprise, surprise......... Libertarian, but I already knew that. But I'm sure there are a lot of folks that fall into the Libertarian category and don't realize it.

Personal 70%, Economic 100%.
Rates as a Libertarian but I'm not into political labels. I would consider myself an independent because I don't believe in any specific political doctron. I vote my beliefs as much as the quality of the candidates will allow, unfortunately, their aren't very represenative of my beliefs.

Your PERSONAL issues Score is 70%. Your ECONOMIC issues Score is 40%.
According to your answers, the political group that agrees with you most is...
CENTRISTS espouse a "middle ground" regarding government control of the economy and personal behavior. Depending on the issue, they sometimes favor government intervention and sometimes support individual freedom of choice.
Centrists pride themselves on keeping an open mind,
tend to oppose "political extremes," and emphasize what
they describe as "practical" solutions to problems.

I'dda thought you would at least suggest a Sheila with the same score - but to each their own....  Is that the best you can do? You never know darling, you might end up being the front runner! Could end up like that well known sub culture documentary of the 70s called Deliverance. Ya know I was reading about womb transplants today. I wonder if gay couples might end up with a womb transplant? Would all have to be sun roof deliverys, I dont think mans pelvis would handle it, nor his err you know what, be a long delivery thats for sure. Im not sure on the whole plumbing thing, but I reckon having a womb gotta get you at least halfway there.
