Damn it, someone told me that Canada was your commie neighbour in the north! but apperently not =/ oh well, in a few month i will move back to old good socialist sweden again ;) :p seriously tho, canada is more socialist in some areas than sweden :S and of course more capitalist in many areas too...
I think they simply asked the wrong questions, nothing about public health insurences for example ;) |

The last time I took it was over a year ago. I also tried to answer using the more extreme choices(i.e. seriously agree vs. agree, seriously disagree vs. disagree) this time around where I felt comfortable enough saying so. Oddly enough, I ended up less to the right when I picked more extreme answers! |

I wish their was a no opinion option though, and more questions might have helped. With more questions they could get some sort of self validity test in there. Of course if it is really long many people won't want to take it.
Can't these guys write questions without double negatives, it seemed to me their were a few on there. |

Although, I'm a Left Wing/Libertarian, I look to be pretty moderate on this scale. Probably due to the fact that I only answered Strongly on agree/disagree on only a couple questions. |
