Economic Ideology Survey

This questionnaire will ask you questions to determine your economic ideology. You will be placed into an economic system at the end of the questionnaire.

Please keep in mind that economic ideologies are extremes and most people range somewhere in between these ideologies. This questionnaire will provide you insight into which one you lean to but will not be a de-facto answer to which system you identify with.
