I'd love to meet my 17-year-old self.
Kids, don't study economics.

Moved to the left a bit and slightly less authoritarian, think it's mainly that I answered 'Agree' for a few that used to be 'Strongly Agree' (or disagree instead of strongly disagree)


Not much change although I've gone a bit more authoritarian again, my kids must have been worse behaved today than they were the day I last took this.

Not at all surprising. The only part I can think of which might have changed since I can remember would be the question asking whether crooks can be rehabilitated.

Y'know, the really strange part is that, in my head, I'm centrist. Guess I feel stronger about things than even I realised.

I showed my results (-7,-4) to a friend who said "so you believe in freedom for the people - but not businesses" is that ironic thinking? Or is it perfectly reasonable to believe governments (who we vote for) should be able to control businesses somewhat?

Nah you can be left/left on the compass and still have internally consistent beliefs. It's hardly controversial to say that people are more important than businesses.
