Your views call for roughly same amount of goverment and liberty that we have today, with some desire for more economic freedom and more government control over certain personal behaviors.
It appears that you are relatively happy with the status quo, with probably some desire for more Republicans in office. However, there are limits to what this quiz can measure, so this assessment may not be correct. (Since you are close to the center, the "signal" may be lost in the "noise.")
Approximately 6% of the takers of this quiz scored in this area, 36% for all within the centrist circle.
Political parties, campaigns, and related links of interest for those who lean conservative.
Some light reading on economics and government.
| Think economics is just about predicting interest rates? Think again! Marginal Revolution is a very interesting economics blog written by professors at George Mason University. |
| Would you like to fire a hundred thousand bureaucrats? Would you like to do something about the hoards of illegal immigrants? Would you like to restore federalism and bring most domestic government back down to the state level? Then replace the federal welfare state with free money for all U.S. citizens. As a bonus, you'll make marriage economically worthwhile for the poor again. |

From your answers it appears you believe that government should be involved in enforcing some aspects of personal morality. If you think that such enforcement should be based on Christian (or Jewish) principles, you should find these articles of interest. | |

The Law of Liberty takes an in depth look at which aspects of personal morality were enforced in Old Testament Israel, and which were not. There was indeed morality enforcement (and how!) but the morals enforced were quite different from those enforced in the U.S. of the current era. In many areas, the Law of Moses was more libertarian than current U.S. law. |
|
The Power of Mercy continues this analysis by looking at the New Testament. Which laws of the Old Testament should Christians obey today? Which should they enforce on others through the might of the state? The answers may surprise you. |

If you are tired of the expense, bureaucracy and subsidized immorality of the current welfare state, check out God's Welfare System. This article shows shows how the poor were supposed to be taken care of during Old Testament times. Many of the ideas are useful to this day, ideas on how to help the poor without subsidizing irresponsibility. |
