Survey on libertarianism

[Samuel025]

Hi everyone,

I'm a French student writing my master's thesis on Libertarianism. I'm currently trying to do a little bit of statistics and number crunching to back up what I'm writing.

Anyways, I would appreciate if you could fill-out this really short (2 min) survey: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dG1IRHFrOXdFZDhXWUxJYmo4YlMwWlE6MQ

Thank you
Samuel

The graphs showing how important same-sex marriage and prostitution are to libertarians is telling.

It is not that big of an issue to most, but it is used against us as if it is our #1 concern.

You should send the results to the RNC.

I didn't appreciate how the questions were so open-ended.
"How important is it to you"? Well, if the candidate doesn't say anything at all about same-sex marriage, it's not important to me.
If the candidate says "Marriage is not a function of the state and therefore the state ought not to say anything at all on the matter", then all of a sudden it's a 5.
If the candidate says "under no circumstances should we allow same-sex marriage", then all of a sudden it's a 5.

I filled out the survey as well.

Done.

 

[NoOneButPaul]

As I expected abortion is the most divisive issue within the movement.

Such a sausage fest.

Such a sausage fest.

That was my first observation as well.

To the OP: Good luck with the thesis!

Thanks to all of you for your input!

To Lucille: No I did not see this article, nice find, thanks!

To the person who found the questions too open ended, I agree on some level, but it's how I wanted them. I wanted a general idea first, and I was thinking of maybe doing a second survey with more specific questions a few month down the road, as I am basically just starting my research right now.

Well to be fair he also posted it somewhere else that could explain the overwhelming male response. The comment snippets at the bottom gave it away.
