    Libertarian.

    Why?

    Because I believe in civil rights and freedom to live for everyone. This sums it up well:

    You can find out more on wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Libertarian :)

    Centrist, a little to the right maybe. Don't like the way that left-liberals choose to look at the bigger picture when it comes to economics and politics.

    I can't really put myself in any of those categories. I'm more right wing than left, definately a finacial conservative though I have strong views on civil liberties. Tough on crime and take a globalist perspective on international politics.

    I dont have a Political view, all Governments so far have shown themselves
    to be incapable of resolving the problems this planet has & faces, some have good intentions & are genuine but red tape, political personal goals, greed & dishonesty are rife within all political parties.

    look at the history of the UN, if they 'together' have been unable to Resolve issues what hope for a local political party.

    United Nations ? I'd say Disunited would be a more appropriate.

    Please yoyo. Reread your own posts. You are no libertarian. I'd more define you as an anarchist. I think that's a little closer.

    and what did i post to say you didn't say that? I'm just saying that you are more anti-government than any libertarian I've ever seen, which makes you closer to an anarchist. Read the immigration threads and your posts, among others, to see my point.

    And how exactly do the right-wingers address economics? Please explain this to me.

    Thank you!

    They support entrepreneurship, like it or not, but big business is what fuels the economy. Have you watched WorldCup soccer? About 80% of the companies who bought advertising were American. Now why is that considering less than 1 percent of the people watching the cup were actually Americans ;)

    I'm not anti-government, I'm anti-our-current--corrupt-government.

    Centre-right i guess is what i agree most with. I think there should be social welfare, but at the same time, there should be incentives for entrepreneurship.

    Government should set minimum and maximum boundaries and interfere only when it reaches a critical stage. Between the boundaries there should be free-market.

    E.g. if price of oil reaches a certain amount, i believe governments should intervene to lower prices (after ensuring it passed the critical stage).

    You are also anti the past government, re-read the thread the 9/11 conspiracy threads. So if you are anti this government; and anti the past government. Its a pretty recognizable pattern. I just want you to be honest with yourself, that's all.
