What? No "Have you ever kissed/fondled/shagged a Libertarian" questions?

I don't think vouchers are an improvement in housing and education, and I do believe in some immigration control, otherwise I would have got 160.

 

[anewvoice]

Yeah, this tests fails in that it offers the same damned either/or format the mainstream pushes down our damn throats.

For the record, 59, but many questions I wopuld agree on if they weren't written to be so hardline.

 

[IDefendThePlatform]

160 and proud of it.

That's why there's 3 sets of basically the same question just at different levels for different points.

My libertarianism ends at the Constitution

 

[MikeStanart]

93, and I feel like an anarchist with that score.

Sheesh, that was an anarchist test.

man, some negativity, (low rating)

I just thought it was kind of fun.

159 points: You are nearly a perfect libertarian, with a tiny number of blind spots. Think about them, then take the test over again. On the other hand, if you scored this high, you probably have a good libertarian objection to my suggested libertarian answer.


The only thing I disagreed on was the immigration laws. I think they should be tougher, not more relaxed.

 

[Knut Schreiber]

Idealistically 160. But I'm pragmatic I would not be opposed to a very decentralized and very limited government.

 

[Russellk30]

Anybody that scores perfect on that test is not a libertarian. I dont know why more points are received for being an anarchist. That just doesnt make sense.

[forsmant]

The libertarians stole that word.

 

[Bold As Love]

I think that a lot of this comes from Murray Rothbard in "For a New Liberty: A Libertarian Manifesto". I may be mistaken, but I believe that there were a lot of similar positions in his book.

He was more of an anarcho-capitalist.

Just a thought, we might not want all 435 members of the House of Representatives to see things this way, but if this represented the far-right fringe, we might be a little happier with government.

Your score is...

153

131-159 points: You are nearly a perfect libertarian, with a tiny number of blind spots. Think about them, then take the test over again. On the other hand, if you scored this high, you probably have a good libertarian objection to my suggested libertarian answer.
