Excuse me... which test did you take??????? (I'll be happy to share my honest scores with you.) The reason I encluded all THREE was because it's unlikely that ANY very short test can reveal all of a person's political philosophy, but with three different ones a fuller, hopefully more complete picture emerges.

Hi Johannes, I, too occupy the dot at the top of the apex. But I think I want to quarrel with your definition of Libertarians as leftists. I want to define a "real" libertarian as one influenced by the Austrians, perhaps the Chicago boys, by the visions of a Murray. Years ago I was active, along with a tiny handful of other cranks, in the WA Pierce & King LP. At the State conventions I'd interact with a larger (hah!) crowd. The overwhelming majority of those I met fit my definition. Unfortunately, it seems an odd collection of libertines and whackos get to define Libertarians in the popular conception. Witness Howard Stern running as a Libertarian. Hmmn?
