We've had this thread so terribly many times i'm tempted to lock, but i'll let this one slide.
I'm the bottom-left quadrant on political compass: social libertarian, economic leftist. Social Democrat would be the label in most countries: quite willing to let folks do what they want as long as it doesn't harm others, with knowledge that a lot of so-called property rights lead to a fair deal of direct or indirect harm to others, and therefore need a degree of state regulation.
To what degree we need regulation i've bounced back and forth on. My old Marxist impulses still lurk in my psyche, but i look at this world and see (at least for the first-world countries) a pretty good place to live on the whole, one that just needs a bit of tweaking from the state to patch the holes.
