Left Libertarian

You scored 87% Personal Liberty and 70% Economic Liberty!
A left libertarian believes in little to no government intervention on personal matters and little to moderate government intervention on economic matters. They generally believe in a government that is extremely small and limited to the extent of protecting people's liberty. They tend to be strongly opposed to war, police powers, victimless crimes, foreign intervention and what they consider to be a welfare state. They strongly support self-ownership and support property rights. They support capitalism as an economic system. Libertarian thought is individualist in nature.

And you say this because you have a quiz of your own, or because you actually have some substance behind your opinion? I honestly want some insight from fellow political experts on how to go about improving this quiz. Thanks.

Many reasons, but the most glaring is you try to pigeonhole everything under the 2 party system. That someone like Libertas is a 'Democrat' under this should tell you something.

Why does it assume everyone must be either a Democrat or a Republican?

Because, as I am sure you know the two major parties are the Democratic party and the Republican party. The % was saying how much you fit into the party, it does not say that is the party you must belong to. As stated before your post I will be adding subclasses to entertain those of you who are extremely emerged in politics and require some sort of identity among a smaller group - Which I have found to be less than 4% of quiz takers which have taken my quiz judging from ratings.

Again thanks for the input.

The percentages below show how often you agree with each party. For instance, if your score for Labour is 70%, it means that you agree with Labour 70% of the time.

Labour 19%

Conservative 65%

Greens 33%

LibDem 42%

UKIP 85%
Graph of results from quiz

Recommendation: You should support the UK Independence Party.
The UK Independence Party is a relatively new party, set up in the early 1990s to campaign for Britain to withdraw from the European Union and negotiate a free trade agreement instead. Over the past few years, they have broadened their manifesto to include a commitment to a simplified, fairer flat tax system which would take millions of lower-aid workers out of tax altogether. They believe that the key to economic growth is simplifying and reducing bureaucracy and the tax burden - believing that the public can spend their own money better than the state can! The UK Independence Party believes that the public should have a greater say in how the country is run. The UK Independence Party believes that people would be more interested in politics if they could change public policy by calling a binding referendum on important social and moral issues. They are also pro-civil liberties. The results of this quiz only tell you how often you agree with each party, but it can't tell you which are the most important issues for you. You should therefore treat this result as a guide only.

At first with this quiz I answered a lot of maybe rather than "yes" or "no", because I hesitate on issues I see as more nuanced.
 

I'm not quite clear on how I could be a social liberal and a socialist and tend toward Republican. I don't object to being termed a moderate or liberal Republican, but only a free-market fundamentalist would consider me a socialist.

Then I tried answered only yes or no, even if I leaned only sightly in one way or another.    
I'm impressed by how much my graph and description changed, but the overall score still pretty similar.  I'm guessing the descriptions don't have a "moderate" category, and so one swings completely from capitalist to socialist with the slightest change.
I'd be interested in seeing a well-illustrated explanation of what the graph represents.

Your true political self:
You are a

Social Liberal
(91% permissive)

and an...

Economic Conservative
(65% permissive)

You are best described as a:

Strong Democrat


You exhibit a very well-developed sense of Right and Wrong and believe in economic fairness.
