What am I?
Yet another of these tests. They're certainly a big improvement on the conventional left/right axis, which is completely useless for describing those of us who are libertarians. But this one still hasn't got it quite right and I suspect that's why I have been categorised as more of a capitalist than a libertarian.
For example, one proposition is this:

I am meant to agree or disagree. But I don't accept the question! I believe that starvation is both unfortunate

We need stronger laws for protecting the environment.

Yes or No? It depends on what their contract says.
But here's my result:
