According to your answers, the political group that agrees with you most is...

Liberals usually embrace freedom of choice in personal matters, but tend to support significant government control of the economy. They generally support a government-funded "safety net" to help the disadvantaged, and advocate strict regulation of business. Liberals tend to favor environmental regulations, defend civil liberties and free expression, support government action to promote equality, and tolerate diverse lifestyles.

That is what the OKCupid one was. I thought the questions on that one were pretty ridiculous though.

At least it got me decently close to what I believe I am. Pretty close to a Liberal/Libertarian.

There are now two posts in this thread from today, which is infinitely many times more than yesterday. Clearly the trend is strongly upwards. Why unstick it just when it gets hot?
