About The Political Compass

In the introduction, we explained the inadequacies of the traditional left-right line.
If we recognise that this is essentially an economic line it's fine, as far as it goes. We can show, for example, Stalin, Mao Tse Tung and Pol Pot, with their commitment to a totally controlled economy, on the hard left. Socialists like Mahatma Gandhi and Robert Mugabe would occupy a less extreme leftist position. Margaret Thatcher would be well over to the right, but further right still would be someone like that ultimate free marketeer, General Pinochet.
That deals with economics, but the social dimension is also important in politics. That's the one that the mere left-right scale doesn't adequately address. So we've added one, ranging in positions from extreme authoritarian to extreme libertarian.
Both an economic dimension and a social dimension are important factors for a proper political analysis. By adding the social dimension you can show that Stalin was an authoritarian leftist (ie the state is more important than the individual) and that Gandhi, believing in the supreme value of each individual, is a liberal leftist. While the former involves state-imposed arbitrary collectivism in the extreme top left, on the extreme bottom left is voluntary collectivism at regional level, with no state involved. Hundreds of such anarchist communities exisited in Spain during the civil war period
You can also put Pinochet, who was prepared to sanction mass killing for the sake of the free market, on the far right as well as in a hardcore authoritarian position. On the non-socialist side you can distinguish someone like Milton Friedman, who is anti-state for fiscal rather than social reasons, from Hitler, who wanted to make the state stronger, even if he wiped out half of humanity in the process.
The chart also makes clear that, despite popular perceptions, the opposite of fascism is not communism but anarchism (ie liberal socialism), and that the opposite of communism ( i.e. an entirely state-planned economy) is neo-liberalism (i.e. extreme deregulated economy)
The usual understanding of anarchism as a left wing ideology does not take into account the neo-liberal "anarchism" championed by the likes of Ayn Rand, Milton Friedman and America's Libertarian Party, which couples social Darwinian right-wing economics with liberal positions on most social issues. Often their libertarian impulses stop short of opposition to strong law and order positions, and are more economic in substance (ie no taxes) so they are not as extremely libertarian as they are extremely right wing. On the other hand, the classical libertarian collectivism of anarcho-syndicalism ( libertarian socialism) belongs in the bottom left hand corner.
In our home page we demolished the myth that authoritarianism is necessarily "right wing", with the examples of Robert Mugabe, Pol Pot and Stalin. Similarly Hitler, on an economic scale, was not an extreme right-winger. His economic policies were broadly Keynesian, and to the left of some of today's Labour parties. If you could get Hitler and Stalin to sit down together and avoid economics, the two diehard authoritarians would find plenty of common ground.

1. No. My opinion is that Mcdonalds should not raise there prices they make billions of dollars a year. They could easily get by most people eat at McDonalds for the low prices if they raise they'd only lose more business.

2. Yes, minimum wage should be raised up to at least $10 an hour, maybe not fifteen, but at least $10 so people can get by.

1. No in my opinion I do not think that you should call this invasion of privacy. Because if someone post something on the internet there obviously wanting to broadcast it to the world, but if it was texting or email, etc. Then yes, I would consider it invasion of privacy.

2. I would say yes, I have not read them, but I would say it says, anything you post is public infromation.

3. No, When you sign the terms and conditions it says they have the right to your information, so it belongs to the company and they can give it to whom they please, unless it wasn't in the terms and conditions then yes it would be violating your rights.

I think that it is ridiculous, that they wait two or more hours to be seated, and then a manger comes and refuses to serve them, and asks them to leave, because a white person felt threatened. I think that manger should be fired, and that white person should be arrested for discrimination when the poor people was just minding there own business, not bothering anyone.
I think Dr. King, when he said, "Free at last, Free at last, Thank God almighty we are free at last," he was meaning that the slave days will all be over and all races will come together, and no one will be judged.

My reaction toward the "I have a dream Speech," was that Dr. MArtin Luther King Jr. had a really great perspective towards combining the different races. "Free at last, free at last, thank God almighty," is what really spoke to me and makes me think of what the blacks had to go through and I really feel for them, because I don't believe, that I would have been able to survive those times.
