How law-abiding are you?

This quiz is to help you see how law-abiding you are. Maybe you are beginning to question the system, or you are very pro-system, or maybe you are so against the system that you want a total abolishment of these laws. "I don't agree with any of the options!" Then choose one you are closest to

This test is not meant to be super accurate, hence why terms 'likely' or 'maybe' will be used in your final result. Find yourself before you submit yourself to a result you got online

A store clerk forgets to scan an item in your cart. The item is equal in value to a non-essential item worth 10 dollars. You notice after checkout. What do you do?
- Go back and pay for it
- Keep it but feel bad
- Keep it and you don't feel bad
How powerful should the state/government be for you ideally? *This question is not asking what you view as possible, but what you would prefer
- The state is the most powerful entity.
- A strong state is necessary.
- A state should hold a decent bit of power.
- A state should have minimal power; only providing for example emergency services and some safe-guards.
- The state should not exist at all.
If you HAD to choose an alternative to a state, what would it be? *Again, asking what you would prefer ideally, not just what is realistic in your mind
- Worker councils which would be democratic and form in factories and local munincipalities for organization and structure.
- Pure individual autonomy, no community-oriented/collective, based on what I/the individual would want.
- NAP (Non Aggression Principle), voluntary contracts, private property norms without a state.
- There is no alternative to the state.
How do you decide if something is “right” or “wrong”? *This is asking in general. If you agree with multiple, choose which one you MOST agree with.
- By whether it follows laid out rules and principles.
- By whether it follows laid out rules and principles, though there are a decent number of scenarios where I would disagree with these rules and principles.
- By the consequences of it, if it was done via what I deem as bad means, but brought about what I view as a very good outcome, then I would be behind it.
- By the intent of the action, if it was done with no malice but resulted in something I view as bad, I would not be against it.
- By if it benefits me or is personally favorable to me; it may be favorable to me one day based on rules and principles, but another day intent, consequences, etc, or may be none of these.
- By if it is illegal.
Your government passes a law that directly affects you and thousands of other people, it will cause an effect which you personally deem awful. What do you do in response? *Choose the one you are closest in agreement with if you do not like any of these options.
- Obey.
- Obey but complain.
- Peacefully protest in the streets.
- Inciting a riot.
What do you think about taxes? *Again, not asking what you think is realistic, but rather what you think is the most favorable.
- Taxes are fine as it is.
- Taxes should be raised for the rich but the same for the non-rich.
- Taxes should be raised for the rich but lower for the non-rich
- Taxes should be abolished as soon as possible
- Taxes are needed until we acheive a post-scarcity society which is stateless, moneyless, classless, past the point of socialism, but to communism, then taxes would no longer be imposed.
Conserve, reform, revolution, or insurrection?
- Conserve. Society is fine as is.
- Reform. Society needs some changes through means which do not actively combat the status-quo.
- Revolution. Society needs a guiding party or large group that will overthrow the current state apparatus/system and arrange the citizens in a new way.
- Insurrection. Society needs to collectively and as individuals actively resist the status quo, society, and the state, where rather than the citizens are arranged in a new way, they democratically decide for themselves how each individual shall be arranged.
What is your ideal (not necessarily realistic) view on surveillance by the state?
- Everywhere. If one is not doing something wrong, then they have no reason to worry about surveillance by the state which feeds them.
- High-crime areas, government buildings, nearly everywhere except homes.
- Government buildings and high crime areas only.
- Government buildings only.
- There should not be a state, so there would be no government buildings for surveillance to be in. Therefore, no surveillance by the state.
If society had no police institution, what should replace them? *Again, not asking what you think is realistic, but what you ideally prefer.
- Nothing, there should be no enforcement of anything on an individual by an endorsed group or a collective of other individuals.
- Communities, such as street watch groups made of local individuals.
- Communities, such as street watch groups, but endorsed by the state themselves.
- Bring back the institutions of police, they were fine as is.
- The previous police institutions were not enforcing enough, so the same but more laws and enforcement and militarization of the police forces.
A friend of yours commits a small theft, they steal 50 dollars total worth of goods they do not need from a big-chain store. What do you do?
- Stop being their friend and report them to the law.
- Stop being their friend but I don't report them.
- I advise them to return it or to keep it, but not do it again.
- Say nothing.
- Encourage them (either by encouraging them to steal more from big-chains, or simply making simple jokes about it.)
Thoughts on global/objective laws?
- There are crimes/laws where no matter the context, culture, location, size, etc, that they must be enforced.
- There are crimes/laws where there is some accomodations/differences based on context, culture, location, size, etc.
- Crimes/laws are flexible based on context, culture, location, size, etc.
- There shouldn't even be crimes/laws.
If you disagree with a law and personally view it as unjust, but every single other person agrees with that law, then what do you conclude?
- I must be wrong.
- It's probably necessary, but needs some compromise.
- It is unjust to me no matter how many obey it, and I would stand firm on that.
How should we derive legitimacy of principles, rules, laws, etc, for a society? *If you accept multiple answers, pick one you most agree with.
- Written laws regardless of what the people or any other collective says.
- Constitutions/documents with some representatives that agree with what is written.
- The consent of every single individual who is governed. (Example; small community of 100, all 100 agree with a principle, rule, law, etc.)
- From individuals themselves, no other external source.
Where do you think freedom of speech would go too far? *This is from an American perspective, you can read the First Amendment if unsure.
- Freedom of speech is already too free.
- Freedom of speech is fine as is.
- Freedom of speech should be broadened a bit but it isn't that bad.
- Freedom of speech should include hate speech.
- Freedom of speech should be 100% free. Zero exception.
- Freedom of speech is not free unless it is totally free, BUT, I do not believe in totally free speech either way.
How do you view morality? *Pick what you most closely agree with
- Objective.
- Subjective, but I adhere to decently strict subjective morals that views things as good/bad.
- Subjective, but I adhere to some subjective morals which lets me deem things as good or bad.
- Subjective, and I subjectively believe as an individual that I do not need to adhere to any morals at all.
What should the relation between morality and the law be?
