If libertarian vs. egalitarian is the main axis along which members of a group differ politically, it's a very unusual group.

What are we really trying to find out about the group? Possibilities that come to mind include:

  • The philosophical viewpoints that underlie our political views
  • Our political preferences along various axes, such as interventionist vs. non-interventionist economic, social and foreign policy
  • Party preferences
