A lot of the questions are ambiguous and have false implicit assumptions. For example:
"Controlling inflation is more important than controlling unemployment."
That's supposedly the twin edicts of the Federal Reserve System (which they've utterly failed at). The answer is NEITHER. There shouldn't even be top-down control of the money supply and interest rates.
Economic Left/Right: -2.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -3.28

Some of these questions are worded funky. Lots of double negative uses.

I agree that many of the questions seem too limiting in their answer choices, but I wasn't upset with the results: a centrist that leans somewhat left on most social issues and somewhat libertarian on some economic issues.
