I'll tally up your score as well: You are 65% socially permissive and 20% economically permissive, making you (take this with a grain of salt) a populist liberal.

You are 70% socially permissive and 45% economically permissive, making you a moderate libertarian liberal. Does that seem correct?

I don't know what any of those phrases mean. I'm not into labels to be honest, and whether I'm an anarchist, a liberal, a conversative, or a dirty sock means little to me, literally. But it's cool I guess. I'm a libertarian liberal, huh? A libertarian liberal.[/quote]

You would have to tell me your fiscal and non-fiscal totals separately.

This is just an observation. None of the site's conservatives have taken this test yet.

Based on this test, you are 50% socially permissive and 85% fiscally permissive, putting you on the border of libertarian conservatism and conservative libertarianism.

Default well good!

That's a big relief. Every time I take one of these tests I bit my nails hoping that it doesn't say that I'm a liberal... I don't know what I would do if it did.
