I think that in my case I am politically engaged. I hold some opinions that are at odds with the right and the left. Putting me in the center is also inappropriate because most of my views really can't be categorized as centrist. For instance I answered yes to legalizing prostitution which last time I checked wasn't exactly a centrists position. I find the polls that give results on a coordinate plane to be more insightful.
This is what I was trying to get across in the other thread where this topic came up. I have opinions on different ends of the spectrum and down the middle, but really in the end I am strongly for individual rights and very strongly for personal responsibility and accountability. Maybe that last part came from being raised by parents of the tail end of the depression era where the mantra was really suck it up, pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and keep moving, and you only really get and deserve what you earn.
