Yeah, it's probably not that accurate. But considering your strong conviction for your religion I can see you being less socially permissive and as you seem to generally care about all people, I can see you being for government funded programs and being less economically liberal too. That doesn't make you a totalitarian though.

Maybe you are a Democrat? Has anybody noticed how everyone seems to exhibit a very well-developed sense of Right and Wrong and believes in economic fairness?

Yeah, they don't want to offend any one. Political correctness.

sk8ndestroy14 294 Posting Virtuoso · Answer 4 · 2007-06-01T08:03:38+00:00

So what political orientation do you actually consider yourself?

Aia 1,977 Nearly a Posting Maven · Answer 5 · 2007-06-01T08:10:00+00:00

That's a loaded question. I know what I am not.
I am not a Democrat.

Thats not true, because I do not believe in economic fairness.. As you may remember from some other thread, I'd like to keep the poor poor, and the rich rich. Economic equality is the beginning of socialism, which I am strongly against.

Yeah, it's probably not that accurate. But considering your strong conviction for your religion I can see you being less socially permissive and as you seem to generally care about all people, I can see you being for government funded programs and being less economically liberal too. That doesn't make you a totalitarian though.

Yea, I'd definitely say that you are probably more liberal than anything..

I got just on the border of the centralist circle, and right on the line between liberal and democrat

Actually, I am not a republican. I can not find a title to fit in, and that's why I said "that is a loaded question".
I am for goverment not getting its nose in my life. I am for not goverment regulates my life, but I am not a anarchist. I believe in authority that let us live in freedom.
The laws some vote for, are the laws that restrict us, all. I believe in a goverment that doesn't think it has the right to protect us of our bad decisions. I don't believe in a goverment that makes me nothing more that another brick in the wall, like the song goes.
Should I continue?...I don't think you want me to do so.

Funny, how come then the Republican party doesn't believe in what I believe?. Because if they really believe those principles certainly, they
are not governing by them.
And what is it with the desire of labeling people?.

"By their fruits ye shall know them".
I don't care about what this or that says. Show me your works not your words.
If any politician today will follow those "views", I will be happy to stand with him and then you can label me anything that you want. Of course the first thing would be to fire half of his cabinet and then give himself
a pay-cut salary. Then I'll say you got my attention.

sk8ndestroy14 294 Posting Virtuoso · Answer 19 · 2007-06-04T07:55:02+00:00

I agree with the corrupt politicians but Aia's opinions aren't all republican views. They seem more libertarian to me (not liberal, it's libertarian for those who aren't as familiar with politics). That doesn't make you an anarchist, just like a republican doesn't make you a fascist and a democrat doesn't make you a communist.

Call me a communist next, and I think my views will be covered.
Perhaps that's what's wrong with politics. Too many labels and too little content.

sk8ndestroy14 294 Posting Virtuoso · Answer 22 · 2007-06-04T08:41:05+00:00

Yeah, for many of us a single label doesn't fit. There are too many dimensions to cover every ideology with a label, and that seems to be what's going on with you. I'm not saying you are a libertarian, I just think that from what you've given us that's the closest label someone would probably give you. I don't like labels much either. By the way, you don't seem like a communist, lol.

Actually I would consider myself a communist, not a socialist ;-)

Haha.. I agree about the fat part. We have more obese people than any other country... (or at least, it seems like it.) But there are a lot of intelligent Americans, there's just more from foreign countries.
