Mine is the same as that but with the "You" dot immediately above where that one is.
Answered honestly, I ended up adjacent to the LNP, to the left and up. Therefore, one circle towards the axis.

When it weighted the results, it kept me as far right economically, but moved me much closer to the x-axis, towards social liberalism.

I would have thought this was a very good indication of my beliefs.

Good tool!
 
Thing isn't very good.

I'm pro-gay marriage, pro-abortion, pro-euthanasia, pro-free dental care etc and still classified as a social conservative.
 
I pay no attention to politics and I got the same as the OP. I am surprised since I didn't have a real opinion on a lot of the answers.

Moderately right economically, a little further north socially. I think the nature of the policy options being proposed in this election limits where you are actually able to land on the graph. I am probably deeper into the top right quadrant than I came up as, but policies skewing to my position just aren't on the table.

The binary/magnitude nature of the questions is a bit limiting. What if I believe that mining companies should be taxed differently under a regime more reflective of industry performance? Does that mean I favour higher taxation or lower taxation? Both? Neither? Sometimes, none of the available responses to the question are particularly satisfactory.
 
My result showed that I identify with the Greens, nothing could be further from the truth.
 
no real surprises, would have thought i'd be slightly further to the right economically however

Weighted or unweighted?

Dental care is an economic issue.

Both I'm pretty much directly north west of the LNP by about a dot.

Not sure I agree with your second statement either. It undoubtedly would have significant economic consequences but I don't think it's a distinctly economic issue.

I'm pretty sure on the chart it registers as an economic issue. I don't see why a social conservative would oppose cheaper dental care.
 
Yeah. Being in favour of greater socialised healthcare definitely registers on the economic spectrum.

The social spectrum is more about your stance on civil liberties and stuff.
