Smack in the middle of the economic left progressive libertarian quadrant. No surprises there.

No branch of government should be allowed to accumulate too much power.
tell me you're from the us without telling me you're from the us. what's a "branch of government"?
If you made this yourself and are looking for feedback (that's unclear), one issue is:
No branch of government should be allowed to accumulate too much power.
Surely by definition too much power is too much regardless of your personal threshold for "too much", hence everyone's answer will be the same?
I mean I am definitely on the left side of the spectrum, but I feel like with statements like
The worth of a product comes only from what people are willing to pay, not from its labor or social benefit.
or
Maximizing economic growth is more important than reducing inequality.
I feel like the quiz wants you to get certain results
I think they cut right to the heart of the divide/tradeoff between capitalism and socialism. Maybe you are just surprised to find out where you land on the spectrum? Also which side do you feel it's pushing you towards?
I am strongly on economic-left/progressive, a little bit towards liberalism. That is the less surprising result I could imagine. I think it the quiz favours the left of the spectrum. I don't think people would in general agree with the 2 statements I cited above the way they are formulated. But maybe I am already too disattached from society.
ITT the average person is actually just more left wing than they think due to powerful people who own media conglomerates constantly trying to package the right wing in a way that we will swallow and left wing ideals being all but outlawed in the media.
Ohhh, I haven't taken one of these since my /pol/ days more than a decade ago! Let's see.
PD.: Unsurprisingly, I'm deeply in the lower left corner. 🤷
