Ideas on Government- What is the role of government?

1. Go to Political spectrum quiz
Take quiz. Post a comment on the blog summarizing the results of your quiz.
2. Go to liberal v conservative
Pick any four topics that are of interest to you. Read each competing view. On a piece of loose leaf write your own view of the topic. Explain your view and explain if you are liberal / conservative or somewhere in the middle. Each explanation should be about a paragraph or more in length.

    I am a right social libertarian, which means I am culturally Liberal but also shows that I am a little conservative on some topics.

    You are a center-left moderate social authoritarian.
    Left: 2.51, Authoritarian: 1.31

    I was more left when we did this activity outside. I expected that I was going to be more toward the left. I think that for some things I'm more liberal and others more conservative.

    The website said I was a left moderate social authoritarian. This was the same thing that I was when we did this activity in class.I kind of already thought that, because I think of the rights of individuals- Shannon

    outside I was to the left but for the quiz I was to the right. I think it means that i believe people should be equal and people should have certain rights.

    I am a left moderate social authoritarian. When we were outside I was liberal, now I am more conservative. i was more liberal on the culture section and on foreign policy I was more non-interventionalist. I think this means I have more opinions on problems in my country rather than in other countries.

    I was A Left Moderate Social Libertarian. I was pretty much in this area on the field too. This means that I am pretty much liberal, with one or two conservative views.

    The quiz said I am a centrist social moderate, which is similar to where is was in the football field. It might mean in a political view that I am independent.

    Left: 1.61 Libertarian: 2.14
    Foreign Policy: -7.3
    Culture: -5.79
    The results basically said that I'm a liberal. I'm strongly against war, and I think it is wrong to be closed minded against other cultures.
