In the centre

I always thought I was more in the centre. This is my box from The World’s Smallest Political Quiz on Facebook. Apparently this still counts as centrist, if a little left-leaning. However, the summary wasn’t far off:

Centrists espouse a “middle ground” regarding government control of the economy and personal behavior. Depending on the issue, they sometimes favor government intervention and sometimes support individual freedom of choice. Centrists pride themselves on keeping an open mind, tend to oppose “political extremes,” and emphasize what they describe as “practical” solutions to problems.

That seems like a good place to be, in the center of everything, so that you don't have to go very far to get to the other places.

That’s true. The questions were very geared to the short term though, so I imagine it biases one to the status quo in society. I always tell people I am a Confucianist, which would actually tend far more to the libertarian quadrant in the diagram.

[this is good]

I'm a Libertarian- I do have reservations with some positions of the LP here in America, but that's to be expected when you can think for yourself.

I can’t think of any party that fits me perfectly here. The right has nothing for me here, but I also see the kooky ideas of the left.
