Political Compass

If you like to take tests to find out more about yourself, the Political Compass is a good one. It's theory is that the traditional one-dimensional labeling of being politically "left" or "right" is inadequate since your economic beliefs can be different from your social beliefs. After you take the test, you get a graph showing your economic beliefs on the horizontal axis, and your social beliefs on the vertical axis. You also get numbers if you are graphaphobic.

(Edited to remove Jeff and Konnor's graphs, since they are in the combined graph in a post above.)

Take the test for yourself and e-mail us the results. There's about 40 statements that you mark strongly disagree, disagree, agree, or strongly agree. Click here to go to the site.
