I took the test and these were my scores :

Your Personal Self-Government Score is 70%.
Your Economic Self-Government Score is 70%.

BUT I have been STRONGLY (and rudely BTW) told by the Libertarians on FR that I am NO Libertarian.

One poster said that no two Libertarians agree with each other
From what I've seen ... that is true

Charles Murray wrote a book entitled " What it means to be a libertarian--(to me)"

He added that last part because there is so much difference of opinion on the subject.

In short though, it has to do with the use of the initiation of force to achieve what you want. That will usually decide the issue.

Most people believe things in degrees, libertarians believe that the use of force in the defense of rights is acceptable, but not the initiation of force to attain goals.
