Expected to be a little more libertarian, but I have softened over the past couple of years. I do wish some of those questions allowed us to explain further. The question about richer people being able to pay for better healthcare for example - I chose agree, because I do think if you can afford a higher standard of healthcare than others, than you should be able to access a higher standard of healthcare.

However, I also believe that everyone is entitled to access at least a certain standard of healthcare when they need to. I don't know if that would change the overall verdict or not.

Yes, some of the questions didn't have black or white answers.

I said the same as you for that question and have the same feelings. Everyone should have a level of healthcare but what's the point in earning more money if you can't spend it?

Exactly mate, I agree totally.

The two questions that got me the most were that one and the one about whether I think corporations sole priority should be to make a profit for their shareholders. Iirc I think I chose disagree. I think it should be one of a few priorities, and probably the top priority out of them all, but I also think they have a priority to act in a way that does not adversely affect huge groups of people.

Even though I'm a (very minor) shareholder, I also don't like how profits are the only real measure of a company's strength and value. Call me old school, but if I had a business I would be happier and more proud to boast that my company employed 1000 people (if there was work for them all, of course) and made $100 million profit than to say it employed 500 people and made $200 million profit.

Still though, I think the compass was a fairly accurate portrayal of my political views nowadays.

All aboard the Gandhi Top Team train.


Honestly thought I'd be more to the lower right of this.

While you right wing nut jobs are under your beds jerking off into a sock trying to hide from the bedroom cameras "The Great Leader" has installed. I'll be naked on mushrooms chasing a beautiful blonde with a 5 pound bush down the beach. We'll make dirty primal love under a water fall, and our comprehensive health care will pay for the medicine she'll need to clear up the gonorhea I've just given her.

This is great information for me. It makes it easier for me to organize my hit list before I overthrow this forum and rule it with an iron fist.

Im ok with not being in charge but when you put up the wall, let me in. Im useful.
I like it. I already have my first soldier.

I'm a great boss. If you have my back I'll kill for you. If you don't... I'll find someone that will and have them kill you.
