Second time doing this, actually was farther left on the economic scale than I originally was the first time (where I spent more time on it).

Some of these questions are strangely worded: “The most important thing for children to learn is to accept discipline.” Don’t you learn to “be” disciplined"? how does one “accept” such a thing? Any thoughts as to the wording?
Anyway,
Economic Left/Right: 0.12
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -3.38
I seem to have shifted slightly rightwards on the “economic” scale since the last time I took this test.
I seem to have shifted to the right on my economic side lately.
Economic Left/Right: 2.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -1.49
No surprises here.
Just a couple squares left of “Uncle Milty” in the southeast quadrant – where I always end up on this test (that I’ve taken several times now).
Economic Left/Right: 5.38
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -2.05
Sounds about right, but some of those questions are loaded.
Economic Left/Right: 7.62
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.67
I am not sure the person who wrote this test knows what libertarian is. The answer that best fits our description is: I don’t care/It’s not my business.
Economic Left/Right: -3.50

That means that theoretically we should be able to do everything we want, government just won´t leave us enough money to actually do it?

Um, not really sure what you are asking. I just answered the questions man.
I believe we should live in a balanced free-market economy (with regulation), where everyone pays taxes (rich pay a higher percentage) that fund social programs so that there is a large safety net for unemployed, social security, healthcare etc. Socialism, similar to Germany or France. Also a society that places quality public education as the #1 priority.
Come on! Surely you proud Republicans can post an honest score that is further right than Orion or myself…?

I beat Lifty and Orion…
I wonder what my scores would’ve been like four or five years ago…
some of the questions are just too ambiguous
Interesting.
