| Could someone post a non-biased view of the different political views and sides so I know what I agree/disagree with? I know my views, I don't know the terms for the views. |

You're an imperialist/monarchist-classist-leftist apparently.
Not a very popular viewpoint. |

Ohai!
So..
Right wing is kind of related to a free market, and capitalism. Moneh! It also tends to be related with patriotism, monarchy, religion, traditionalism and so on (hence the name of the Conservative Party).
Left wing is more leaning towards public or government ownership in contrast to corporations. A welfare state too instead of more each man for himself. Related to the progressive viewpoint. Trade unions and the labour movement. Sharing is.. caring..
Anarchy is opposite to fascism, which is where the state is totally in charge. Like Iraq or WW2 Germnay. Libertarianism is oppiste to collectvization, which is where everything is communally owned. Like Tolstoyan Agricultural Communes, Pre- Afrikaaner SA or Stalin :D. |

I'm Alexander Kerensky :D.
Um, I think so. I know I'm a leftist, but some rightist ideas are okay too. I don't think I'm really a socialist as such. Progressive is good :-). |

Except the politicans in office who're right wing are acting just as bad as the left wing when it comes to economic freedom. |

We are pretty much taught these days that Sharing is Caring, and yeah.
Even with a Conservative government, we still have them values. |

Leftists don't ban economic freedom, they just encourage more regualtion :). Well, not socialists. But the pros and cons of that are a long debate.

| In one dimension, yes. But we could argue about whether corporations should remain unregulated. |
