My Political Compass Test Result

Would anyone like to debate where Ayn Rand would fall on this? I have found a couple examples placing her at the center of the Libertarian/Right and another placing her more so at the farthest point of the Libertarian/Right.

As well, I would encourage a discussion on the understanding of Ayn's view on Libertarians as in comparison to Objectivism and I do wish to know anyone's understanding of romantic realism to a deeper degree. The latter perhaps deserves it's own post.

    I don't know the validity of the test but I would say it's a good start for a person that doesn't feel they belong in the left right paradigm. I wasn't happy in high school when I was made to take a test that only had left and right options. I questioned my teacher why I had fallen in the middle and why there wasn't more explanation of the other options. He just said your independent and walked away. I took this today to see the outcome based on any recent developments within myself and found the same chart listing Ayn Rand. I find myself understanding and agreeing with many of her ideas but I still seem to be to the left of her according to this. So I decided to seek more advice.

    I don't know where she would rank, so I really have no input on it, but when I see these tests on the interwebs I often wonder just who creates them and for what purpose.
