Yes exactly. Although I really am libertarian on social issues and quite left-wing and socialist on economic issues. So -10, -10 comes pretty close to my views although sometimes on that test my scores might be closer to the center, sometimes as close as -5, -5 but never closer than that. I am not by any means an anarcho-anything, nor do I want to completely eliminate all private enterprise, I just happen to really dislike big corporations, enthusiastically support democratic socialism, and also be a strong supporter of individual liberty in people's personal lives.
Just from reading through your explanation of your views earlier, I can guess that we probably agree on almost every issue, and yet I get around -5, -5 on the political compass.
