Of course, I think that I have a lot of 'left' views, and a lot of 'right' views... oh well!

I like to piss everyone off equally. :)

Left-Liberal, no real surprise here.  Although it's off, because of US oriented questions.

The questionaire is stupid.

 Illegal immigration is a problem; deport illegals and limit Visas
 That is two distinct and almost opposite questions. I may be against illegal immigrants (and illegal anything) but for granting visas to young educated people willing to come live here.

 It would be wise to cut taxes across-the-board and simplify the tax code
 What does cutting/increasing taxes has in common with simplifying the tax code?
 Tax amount should cover the spending whatever it is. Tax code should be simple and equitable.

 BTW, I am Right-Libertarian

Hate to say it but you just did the same thing the test did.

Complicated taxes are the result of politicians trying to be equitable...For example..a politician will say. "Okay, we think there should be a reduction in Capital Gains tax, because the middle class are suffering when selling a home that has significantly gone up in value.  But, we don't want those rich guys benefitting when they sell their luxury yacht....so we will impose limits on income from which to base the deduction or reduction in tax..."  

Those limits become more and more complicated as more and more factors are taken into account...in order to maintain the fairness of the reduction in Capital Gains Tax...

It is a vicious circle!
