Being wildly to the left or right on many issues means I end up in the centre. Was expecting more libertarian.

Pretty sure I remember you being further to the left on economics and authoritarian on social issues. Interesting part of the chart your on - generally, you don't see too many centrists on economics, and heavily libertarian on social issues.

My actual position is that anything efficiently done by competition should be very free, and anything not should be completely socialised (healthcare, utilities). The worst failings of the government seem to come from intermediate positions, like a healthcare market with a Medicare component, or private companies building schools and leasing them back to the government forever. Centrism is exactly the compromise I dislike.

Maybe I have drifted in the last few years. I voted in my first election last year and have been living with the consequences.
