You are a social moderate. You think the progressive movement is overall well meaning, but sometimes it goes too far. On issues like abortion and affirmative action, you see the negatives of both extremes on the issue. You probably value religion, but at the same time you think it should still stay separate from the government
Capitalist Purist/Social Capitalist score: 8
You are a Moderate Capitalist. You support an economy that is by and large a free market, but has public programs to help people who can't help themselves or need a little help. Pretty much you believe in the American economy how it currently is.
Libertarian/Authoritarian score: 8
You're a Moderate. You think that we all have certain inalienable rights that must be protected, but that sometimes laws need to be made to protect the majority's lives or quality of lives. You might think that the 2nd amendment isn't necessary anymore because letting everyone a gun is extremely dangerous to the community. You might also be against illegal drug use or public pornography because of its possible harmful effects to society.
Pacifist/Militarist score: 7
You're a Moderate. You think that in very rare occasions, the United States should invade a country in order to make the world better by spreading democracy or ending a tyrants rule. You also think that defense is very important, and we shouldn't lower the defense budget. You think that, while the Iraq War probably was a mistake, that we can make the world a better place by sticking with it and spreading democracy in the middle east.
Overall, you would most likely fit into the category of Moderate
Not totally right but generally got my correct picture.

There are better tests. Generally anything with a strict "Yes/No" input is skewed.
Capitalist Purist/Social Capitalist score: 12 You're a Social Capitalist, you think that, left to its own, Capitalism leaves a lot of people behind. You think that Health Care should be free to all, that the minimum wage should be raised, and that the government should provide jobs to all that are capable of having them. You likely hated the Bush tax cuts, and believe that the middle class has gotten poorer, and the rich have gotten richer over the past several years. The far extreme of social capitalism is socialism.
Libertarian/Authoritarian score: 3 You are libertarian. You think that the government is making way too many unnecessary laws that are taking away our innate rights. You believe that the government's job is primarily to protect people from harming other people, but after that they should mind their own business, and if we give the government too much power in controlling our lives, it can lead to fascism.
Pacifist/Militarist score: 2 You're a Pacifist. You are angered that the United States thinks it should dominate the world through its military force. You think that the only time war is necessary is when we are in direct danger of being attacked. You also believe the US spends way too much of its money on defense, as we can practically cut it in half and still easily defend ourselves, and use that money to fix all our economic problems.

Militarist yes because I'll be damned if I let my country be subjugated into waiting on the piss-incompetent UN or suffering a devastating attack like Pearl Harbor or 9/11 before being allowed to defend ourselves as a country.
Social Conservative is only due to the test's wording. As a libertarian I oppose all intrusions of society and uphold all rights such as the right to life in the case of abortions or the right to bear arms even if that means allowing the populace to own Miniguns and guided missiles despite the damage criminals can cause with such things.
According to the test I am a moderate in all but one category.
I've also noticed that these political tests always group me with John F. Kennedy for some reason.

Eh...not quite. Close, though.
I'm not that libertarian, or that much of a pacifist.
Except for 4/1/2011. That day lingers in my memory like...metaphor here...I should go.
^^ Whichever action best benefits our country. If it means going in imperialist style so be it, if it means intervention so be it.
I'm not looking out for anyone else when it comes to the military option. Especially not the UN. If there's nothing in our interest or concern over an issue, I will not take it up militarily. (Take Libya for example, I'm not opposed to intervening and dropping Qaddafi off a bridge with Cement Shoes, after all a democratic Libya can be a useful ally or at the very least one less dictator in the world. I just think Obama's going at it with the wrong methods and a distinct lack of goals/planning.)
