Yep. I'm not JavaBlack's MiniMe for nothing.

Censorship
Death Penalty
Existence of Government
Foreign Intervention
Gun Control
Immigration Laws
Marriage Regulation
Selective Service
Suspension of the Constitution
The War on Drugs

Central Banking
Deficit Spending
Government Control of the Currency
Government Welfare and Aid
Income Tax
Minimum Wage
Nationalizing Health Care
Nationalizing Property
Progressive Income Tax
Social Security

My score is 50% permissiveness on both fiscal and non-fiscal issues, putting me exactly in the center. I appreciate all replies. Thank you very much.

Censorship: SO
Death Penalty: SO
Existence of Government: SS
Foreign Intervention: SO
Gun Control: SO
Immigration Laws: SO
Marriage Regulation: PS
Selective Service: SO
Suspension of the Constitution: SO
The War on Drugs: PS

Central Banking: PS
Deficit Spending: SO
Government Control of the Currency: PS
Government Welfare and Aid: PS
Income Tax: SS
Minimum Wage: SO
Nationalizing Health Care: SO
Nationalizing Property: SO
Progressive Income Tax: SO
Social Security: PS

I am now 80% socially permissive and 70% economically permissive, making me a liberal-leaning libertarian. It's official. I'm now in the political realm of JavaDoc.

Did you make a mistake in stating that you strongly support nationalizing property (as is done in some forms of communism)? I note that because it doesn't seem consistent with the rest of your ideology.

oops I did not mean to do that. Lets call it typo.

You're right. I strongly oppose it. Its the free enterprise system all the way for me.

Okay, you are 45% socially permissive and 50% economically permissive, making you (based on this test, anyway) a centrist with slight right populist leanings.
