On the other hand, I think the Authoritarian/Libertarian axis is kind of a trip. "Leave me alone while I do my thing" should not be synonymous with "I don't want health care or access to paved roads."

I agree that Authoritarian is a loaded term. Unfortunately we don't really have a political party that would fit it, so nobody got a say in what to call it.
Libertarian isn't bad though. It is pretty accurate per the party's views.

It'd be the diametric opposite of the "states rights," "leave me in my bunker," Bert from Tremors
Ron Paul forev's peeps.
Because libertarian views are like tweeters and clean blends. They sound good on paper, but they just don't work

I feel like a lot of these questions will yield a left libertarian outcome. Maybe? Unless we're mostly all the same..

I feel like the libertarian scale on this is more talking about social liberties; death penalty, gay marriage, weed and shit, because I'm all for taxes, healthcare, benefits and public infrastructure, which I would have thought would not make me much of a libertarian as I understand the term, and then this thing says I'm pretty libertarian.

Being a Libertarian doesn't necessarily mean you're against
all taxes and public programs, but yes I think it does perhaps focus on more of the social aspects.
