Which political ideology best describes you?

I honestly don't know.

I generally lean towards the left on quite a few issues, but I disagree with some other aspects of that. And on some issues I'm more right wing. Then there are issues that aren't really left or right, which complicates things further.

I think my interest in politics is more based around specific issues I care about, rather than ideology.

I'I think the main difference between Marxism and Capitalism is the way people are treated with people treated as a value to society by Marxists and people treated as commodities by Capitalists.

Socialist.
I believe in a quite ( but by no means absolute) equal society. Where we don't witness such disgusting wealth inequality.

I think the public Should own our public services including rail and energy.

I'd heavily regulate the free market to prevent monopolies and encourage small and local businesses to take the place of large tax-dodging corporations.

We live in a dog-eat-dog world, whether you like it or not. Is it a choice? No, it's inherited. We are a species which has survived for at least one hundred thousand years in the ultimate free market, no rules, no intervention, each to their own. These are the Darwinian principles of adaptation via natural selection via survival and thus reproduction of the fittest. In my view, we can't forget the history of our species, because it's something innate in us all.

Conservative values therefore, in my opinion, couple the need for state intervention in certain areas which would otherwise be wholly unethical with the ultimate free market of our recent past. Most academics support left wing virtues, in an attempt to impose a certain kind of 'solution' or academic framework to natural world.

Further, in reality therefore, we must seek solutions, with reference to our history. Thus the Tory way is the only way.

The species survived but a ****load of PEOPLE didn't. Call me a supporter of the devolution of humanity if you want but that's not acceptable to me.

Governments, states, laws etc are inherently left-wing: they are institutions we build to temper our dog-eat-dog instincts so we can reap the social and technological progress benefits of living in a well populated polity. Without these institutions we are stuck with settlements of 200 people or less and hunter-gathering.

I don’t see the point of any government which says right, we're not going to interfere, you can all just work it out for yourselves. It might just as well abolish itself. At least libertarians are honest about that sort of thing. The Tories are far worse and hypocritical to boot as they actively use the state to favour those who already hold power in the "free" market while oppressing those who don't.

A hypothetical pure Tory government would literally be worse than not having one at all - and that takes some doing.

Libertarian, the only logically defensible ideology

Low taxes = Incentives = Opportunity

Opportunity leads to innovations and jobs, this leads to a successful country. Do you know what Churchill said about Libertarianism?

''you're not a liberal at twenty you have no heart, if you're not a conservative at forty you have no brain'' - Churchill
I have a large head start on your all I'm Tory now

You know Libertarians advocate No tax right?

Also, just because Churchill said something doesnt automatically make it true or right. Liberalism is one of the most confusing and logically indefensible philosophies, all it relies on is a weird mix of free market principles, socialism and communitarianism. It does not have a logical foundation and flounders when applied to difficult situations in society
