Politics, it's not simply 'left' vs 'right'.

I sometimes get accused of being a right-winger, a neocon. But I disagree with that 'handle. For a start, I am not 'authoritarian' in my views - in fact, I find common ground with those who consider themselves to be libertarians.

I don't believe it is a simple, two-dimensional line on which you identify where you sit. There are at least three factors to consider, making it a multi-dimensional descriptive task, Those three being, at least; your economic views, your views on society and it's organisation, and your attitude towards authority.
By way of example, Hitler and Stalin were considered examples of the extreme right and left respectively, yet both were harsh authoritarians. Niether had time for the democratic process of choosing political representatives. As I've seen it put; 'If government has it's boot on your throat, it matters not whether it is the left or right boot!'.

So, where do I fit in this multi-dimensional matrix? There are on-line quizzes you can take. Interesting way to find out, somewhat more objectively than may otherwise be the case, where your views actually lie.

First, there is the Political Compass. Useful not least because it plots some past and present world leaders on that matrix. (I sit slightly right of centre, and tending slightly towards the libertarian on this quiz).
Then there is 'The World's Smallest Political Quiz'. I took this and, surprise, found it identifies me as a libertarian.

"...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...".

And it even gives you a nifty chart.

Take the test! You may even challenge some perceptions you had about your own views.
