What's your economic type?

There is a quiz for everything. Wonky politico-econo quiz. I seem to be a middle of the road type, which is good, since I jack-all about economics.
"Your dominant economic type: Rubinomics (Strong)."

Liberal Neo-Classical Economics (Rubinomics)

Liberal Neo-Classical Economics (Rubinomics) holds that capital accumulation drives growth, and that the most important role for government is to spur more savings and investment by reducing the budget deficit and encouraging low and moderate income individuals to save more. It holds that markets generally get it right, but that government intervention is warranted to bring about fairer economic outcomes. But markets only get it right if they get the right price signals, so Rubinomics focuses on making sure that there are as few distortions to price signals as possible, including by favoring a simpler tax code with fewer deductions, and more progressivity.

Take the test here.
