Clearly Flawed. You should be able to weight the importance of the question or issue.

About where I thought. I'm more left than right. I'm more libertarian than authoritarian. Neither point to any extreme.

A lot of the questions are flawed by nature. It wouldn't matter if you weighed their importance or not.

Re: The Political Compass- where you at?
 
I have taken a ton of these "tests" and most seem to have a weighting system. On this scale I should be somewhere around the center of the purple square. Some of the questions meant nothing to me while others I find extremely important. That or they should have an "I don't give a ----" option for each question.

I guess I'm a communist. Whatever they ask baited questions that are supposed to stereotype your beliefs. Like they ask questions about regulating corperations. It's retarded they paint you to be a communist who wants a state ran economy.

Corperations need regulated not in what business deals they are allowed to do or who with. They just have to be watched to make sure their not ripping people off and destroying the environment. I think they should be free to do whatever they want just so long as it's not making an unfair monopoly or pumping oil into a river or something.

My only limitation I would impose on a corporation is some heavy taxes for sending work forces to china/india.

there are jobs in the us.

if you had a business would you pay someone high dollar for a job an untrained monkey could do?

they wouldn't ship jobs overseas if our govt didn't force companies to pay people more than what they do is worth. and this all artificially inflates the cost of everything.

Our govt has a min wage the people that get paid $35/hour get paid that much because of unions not the gov

Why pay someone our minimum wage which is around $7 an hour I beleive not sure, when you can pay someone that much a week over in china for the same work. I don't think its right but from a business standpoint it makes sense.

So you belief China should be the richest nation in 10 years? YOu know thats the path were on right? From a company stand point for example harbor freight



Their customer service is now based in India. They proably laid off 5000+ workers so they could get rid of 8-12 dollar an hour jobs. The company already makes millions from overseas and Im sure on the big picture they dont save much percentage wise on their profits cutting damn customer service. I had to order a capacitor for my air compressor 3 times and still never got the right one. They hung up on me twice during all of this has well. Im sorry Im willing to pay an extra 5 cents to talk to a fat black lady from Michigan who can understand ------- ENGLISH!!!



The only people benefiting from sending those JObs to India are the White collar owners who are already worth too much. While I cant get a freakin 6 dollar part because they cant pay someone in America.


So random you agree with Illegals in america too? They work for ---- nothing has well

no.

there is nothing wrong with having a business in another country and importing the goods to the US for sale.

there is something wrong with immigrants coming to the US illegally and working illegally.
