The Political Objectives Test
I am a Social-Liberal.
I scored 64 Equality, 64 Liberty, and 21 Stability!
My commitment to both liberty and equality puts me in the hazy area that exists between the Liberal and the Socialist. I value liberty particularly in cultural and personal life. I also value government intervention to promote equity in economic life while still supporting private enterprise. For me liberty and equality are two parts of the same condition. Everyone has to be free to pursue their own way-of-life but in order for that it happen everyone must start with a similar basic standard of living.

I took the test and I am also a Social-Liberal. I scored 85 on equality, 78 on liberty, and 21 on stability.
I didn't like any of the choices on question #8, so I didn't answer it. I wonder how (or if) that changed my score.
Thanks for the link.
Hello Gary
I am the writer of the Political Objectives Test on an ego-boosting hunt of the Internet for references to my test. Thanks for commenting on it. If you want to see descriptions of all the political labels in the test you can access them via my weblog: http://lazyludditelog.blogspot.com/2006/04/my-new-politics-test.html
To your other commentator - if you had answered the eighth question it would have altered your liberty score by as much as +14% or -14% depending on your selection. If your liberty went over 85% then you would have fallen into a different catagory - the difficult-to-classify 'social-liberal come libertarian'. Otherwise you would have stayed as a 'social liberal'.
Cheers
Daniel
