You scored 80% growing, 20% insuring, and 53% reducing!

Your Results

Fair is equality of power, responsibility, and opportunity, while also following the rules, getting what you work for, what you agree to, and what you have a right to, and recognizing ability.

You perhaps have something in common with the 11% of the U.S. population (13% of voters) whom the Pew Center identifies as Upbeats: pro-business and having a positive view of government.

You might identify as a free-market libertarian, favoring economic freedom, but comfortable with regulation of personal activities.

You would probably agree with the statement that "People Make the World". In other words, that people's circumstances are usually within their control.

A society where citizens are self-disciplined, self-reliant, and government doesn't meddle--might appeal to you.

You might favor trial-and-error in an unconstrained society, a marketplace of initiative, and worry foreign and economic threats, while also being concerned about social deviance that disrupts society.

You might believe that the environment will fix itself, believing that nature is both tolerant and resilient.

You might fall in the South-Easterly direction on Dr. Paul Ray's New Political Compass, and probably fall in the Right-wing (Conservative) quadrant of the World's Smallest Political Quiz.


If someone were to criticize you in a political debate, they'd probably accuse you of not caring about people. On the other hand, it's possible that you've accused someone (holding political opinions different from your own) of either being soft or not understanding how things work.

Bolded: Wat.

Fair is distributing things equally and based on need, so as to ensure that everyone is taken care of.

You perhaps have something in common with the 17% of the U.S. population (19% of voters) whom the Pew Center identifies as Liberals: pro-welfare, pro-environment, pro-immigration, and favoring a non-agressive foreign policy.

You probably prefer politically correct speech, identify as a feminist, and/or support government action or policies to enforce equality.

You would probably agree with the statement that "The World Makes People". In other words, that people's circumstances are often beyond their own control.

An empathic society, where citizens are cared for, respected, and care for others, where obedience is earned through love and respect, and government both communicates why decisions are made, and listens to citizens' questions and ideas--what George Lakoff calls the "Nurturant Parent" model of government--probably appeals to you.

You likely favor voluntary associations, where the good of the group comes first, and worry most that we are ignoring risks that could have catastrophic consequences if we don't act to prevent them.

You support the precautionary principle believing that nature is fragile, and favor sustainable technology, being suspicious of new untested solutions.

You'd probably fall in the Westerly direction on Dr. Paul Ray's New Political Compass, and fall in the Left-wing (Liberal) quadrant of the World's Smallest Political Quiz.

If someone were to criticize you in a political debate, they'd probably accuse you of not understanding how things work. On the other hand, it's possible that you've accused someone (holding political opinions different from your own) of not caring about people.

Piaget believed that errors are far more interesting and instructive than correct answers. This model is a work in progress; please help improve it by providing feedback!

Your Results

Fair is balancing equality of distribution and needs, on the one hand, and rules, rights, hard work, keeping agreements, and leadership, on the other, while also taking into consideration equality of opportunity, responsibility, and power.

You perhaps have something in common with the 14% of the U.S. population (15% of voters) who the Pew Center identifies as Conservative Democrats: pro-morality and neutral on welfare.

You probably believe that sometimes people's circumstances are within their own control, and sometimes not.

A society where government that supports, protects, and cares for its citizens, where respect flows both ways, might appeal to you.

You might favor voluntary associations, with well-defined roles and rules, and worry both about social changes that disrupt those rules, and that we are ignoring risks that we should be working to prevent, while also being concerned about economic and foreign threats.

You might rely on experts to establish rules that limit exploitation of the environment, so as to protect against catastrophe, believing that nature is both fragile and tolerant, but also somewhat random and resilient.

You might fall in the Northerly direction on Dr. Paul Ray's New Political Compass, and may also identify as a Cultural Creative or a New Progressive. On the World's Smallest Political Quiz, you'd probably fall in the Centrist diamond or the Populist, or Statist, quadrant.

If someone were to criticize you in a political debate, they'd might accuse you of being soft. On the other hand, it's possible that you've accused someone (holding political opinions different from your own) of not caring about people.

Accurate! Not sure about the bolded bit, though.
