SO, can we call those with the "higher" figures "wingnuts" ??
If we can agree to call anybody with negative scores "moonbats"
Agreed, with the caveat that either label will only be applied to scores that fall outside the 80th percentile on either side.
Me:
Economic Left/Right: -4.50
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -1.95
Although I admit that the recent economic crisis has probably made me more economically conservative ("left") and less so socially. I'm actually surprised and somewhat disagree with how far left it put me economically. Just because I belief that markets need some regulation and that businesses will look out for their own interests instead of the greater good doesn't mean that I'm ready to collectivize everything and let the government take over.
