Surely the chart has flaws, but I think these type of exercises show how center most people are on issues as a whole. Parts of the platforms for both parties have their appeal, making hardline politics so absurd IMO.

Thoughts on this statement? How is it different than if it said "should have the access to higher standards of health care "

I knew I was a moderate/libertarian.

I've taken this test at least five times in my life, and I keep getting very different results. I've gone from dead center to slightly right to ... this.

Is it different? I answered it as if that's what it meant.

I took it twice today and got different results.
On the second pass I answered a few more questions with strongly agree/disagree and ended up less libertarian and more right as a result.

Yep, these are the kind of gotcha/liberal progressive designed questions in which the general premise is valid but then they throw in "right" to create a dilemma by design. Here's my take:
1. Like it or not healthcare services are expensive. The people who provide the services require extensive advanced technical training and the associated technology is cutting edge.
2. As such, it is completely reasonable that someone who can afford the highest level of care should be able to buy it.
3. But the qualifier is that healthcare is not a right as defined in the Constitution like freedom of speech or the right to bear arms. Should our citizens have affordable healthcare available to them? Absolutely. Should they expect the highest level of healthcare at the same cost/price as affordable healthcare? Absolutely not.
