I don't like that particular quiz alot. (I've taken it before), and come out just barely right wing libertartian, when I know for a fact I'm a full blown tin-foil-hat libertarian.
using the very first question of an example: "If economic globalisation is inevitable, it should primarily serve humanity rather than the interests of trans-national corporations." First of all, I think there is an inference in there that you are either for "humanity" or you are for "trans-national corporations" (and therefore against humanity). The question of mutual exclusivity would probably make a fine question in and of itself (and I'm not trying to start an argument about that here ....) but I think its pretty cruddy to sneak in to a test like that Secondly, is this question asking me to make a prediction about the future (given certain assumptions), or a normative statement in relation to the proper role of government? anyways ...... I'd bet there is a substantial contingent of both 'flaming liberal' and 'tin-foil-hat libertarians' around here.
