Locost builders political leanings part 1

Following today's debate, which describes you best?

Capitalist: Minimum of state provision - army, courts, least possible public infrastructure to make a workable country. Private industry provides the rest. You want it, you have to pay for it. Flat rate of tax per person to pay to run the state, say £2000 for every person alive.

Centre right: Small government provision of basic services only. School to age 16, A&E plus minor injury and common disease treatment only. Single rate of tax, say 25% for everyone.

Communist: Equal pay for all. If a job is worth being done, the person should be paid not the work. Equal rights and provision for all, none shall buy better "elitist" treatment.

Socialist: Good basic standards for all. Low tax for the common man and very high for excessive income. State provides all education health and local amenities for all (eg busses). National transport and culture (football, theatre) subsidised from the public purse.

Centre: Minimum wage to provide a decent living. State provision of good education and health, beyond which people can provide what they wish for themselves. Moderate tax discounts for the poorest funded by moderate extra tax on the rich

Capitalist always means pro US in our country, so that's out.

Communist has two m's. Apparently you weren't around for the post war, pre Thatcher years.

See, I always said I like the way Canadians think.
