    it's not that simple. Historically, left denotes a more progressive outlook on things, be it economically or socially.

      Centre. Some parts im economically right (workers rights and the free market), on some I'm economically left (tax and environment).

      Socially I'm what would probably be considered leftist.

        You get points for it too? Cool!

                      It seems Apolyton is dominated by lefties. It was pretty obvious before, but now we have a proof

                            The poll is skewed by the fact that many of the US posters who consider themselves left wing are actually still to the extreme right.

                                The poll is not about what people are, but about what people think they are
