Controlled Market vs Liberal Market

"Both of these categories assume a capitalist system.

*shrugs*

I don't believe an 80-question quiz can define your believes. Especially not when different issues on which I have different views contribute to the same rating.

In general I like to think not a single fanatic direction is good.
