A GOOD Political Ideology poll.

Why do you need the Euros to comment on it? We have it right here in Canada.

Sure, we don't have Proportional Representation, but our parliamentary system is essentially party-based, not individual based.

Examples:

Party-Based: Prime Minister is the head of the party with the most votes (or seats won, in a PR-less country like Canada)
Individual-Based: President is voted for in a seperate election.

Thanks. In that case, I prefer party-based.

I don't like this poll, but I'm not going to argue against it 'cause then Stefu is going to pressure me into finishing my own (different) three-axis political test...

Republican
Regulated Capitalism

so many Anarchists.

We should lock them in a room with each other.

socially I'm a reactionary but i don't want no segregation...

most conservative republicans would also be reactionary as they don't want to sustain the status quo that includes such things as abortion.

BAD political poll! boh!

[Al B. Sure!]

The 3 R's...

Republicanist
Regulated Capitalist
Reactionary

also I dont think that's a too good definition of Republican vs Democratic forms of government. Technically, democratic gov'ts are ones where the people vote on every issue and not for representatives (which would be a republic). Republics, in the traditional sense, also tend to have a federal system of government with power divided between the central gov't and the provinces.

Restoring society is not 'reactionary,'

Too many negative connotations with that word.

But restoring society is def not conservative (meaning conserving the status quo)

My democracy choice is different than republic because a Democracy has a lot more referendums than a republic, basically more of "Pure Democracy" type, like ancient Athens or many towns in New England. Republicanists believe in a more "elite" government, democrats believe in a more pure form of democracy.
Lord of The Mark got it right on the mark.

Be careful. By this definition the Democrats favouring abortion on demand become conservatives.

Yes. The only way of being "radical" in this issue would be to make abortion mandatory

Republicanist, Regulated Capitalist, Moderate.

People asking that government control things, best watch what they wish for.
