Where do you fall on the political compass?

I am curious about the various people who come to YA politics. I fall in the Libertarian left area. There is a difference between authoritarian leftists and liberal leftists. Most politicians fall into the authoritarian right.

Update:

Okay, you use your brain to answer the questions. I have learned that I am way more libertarian than politicians.

Update 2:

Ralph I fall very far from nanny government:

    I'm on the line between libertarian and authoritarian on the far right side of the spectrum.

    I fall in the personal responsibility area and get really annoyed by nanny government and all the silly remedies nosey people always come up with. I guess that is libertarian/conservative.

    Cool!

  • I suppose you could describe me as a liberal leftist in favor of a mixed economy, which we already have.

    ETA: Apparently I'm pretty close to the bottom left corner.

    There, that's me.

    Though, I disagree with my economic placement, but I digress.
