My Results:

Politically Libertarian, Privately Liberal

Your stance on social issues matches across both political and private spheres - you believe in personal freedom, for yourself and for others. You are not bothered by change as long as this change doesn't involve personal decisions - yours or others - being forced by someone else's hand. Tradition is not as important to you as the right to decide for yourself which rules to follow.

Economically, you believe in different principles depending on the size of the group. In large groups, you worry that too much interference will lead to stagnation at best and more likely corruption and loss of freedom and productivity. It's too easy for people to take unfair advantage of an impersonal large system, and you do not want the government acting as a nanny to a nation of adults. In private interactions, you are confident that the negative effects of cooperation and wealth-sharing can be eliminated or at least minimized and mitigated. It's difficult, especially in a complex political system, to expose and combat fraud and waste.

In small groups, if someone is taking unfair advantage of your goodwill, and won't stop after being confronted, you can simply cut that person off and preserve generosity and cooperation for everyone else. More simply put, you're open-minded, you think that it's good when the able help the less able, and you think equality is a virtue. You just don't trust the government, especially the Federal government, to enforce this without creating more and potentially worse problems.

Your idea of communities coming together for the common good is small communities, like neighborhoods and groups of friends; groups small enough that everyone knows everyone at least a little bit. And a freedom-oriented government lets each small group handle its problems as is best for that particular group. This is the result I got too, by the way.
 
Not bad!

Public and private views match.
Some might call you a bleeding heart, but to you, the blood flowing means you're alive and aware. There are certain freedoms that you hold dear, and others that you believe should be sacrificed for the common good. You want to help the downtrodden and deeply resent when others, especially those who have more ability, don't do the same. Your political beliefs are consistent with the way you live your life, which keeps you from suffering the cognitive dissonance that some others feel and gives you strength in your convictions, but it also makes it more difficult for you to see these matters from another's point of view.

Politically Liberal, Privately Conservative
I bet one or the other of those results surprised you - maybe even both! But it's not as inconsistent as it looks. Economically, you tend to think that big problems need big solutions, and little problems need little ones. So you look to the government to take control on matters that encompass the entire nation. But for everyday interactions with people you know, and for yourself, you prefer to handle it without outsiders and with hard work and perseverance. And while you think that it's better for a large society to be open to many points of view on personal matters, you prefer more rules and decisiveness in your personal life.

Your stance on social issues matches across both political and private spheres - you believe in personal freedom, for yourself and for others. Economically, though, you're split. It may be that you're essentially an economic centrist and a short test, with its small sample size, caused a split in slightly different directions. It may also be that you believe that the government is best equipped to deal with large-scale issues, ensuring fairness for all, while in private life, personal responsibility is more of a factor. After all, you have no way of knowing whether a family five states away is a victim of circumstance or if they're trying to defraud the system - better to assume the best so the truly needy aren't left out and let the government handle it. But you can certainly discern the difference between your sister needing $100 for rent because her hours got cut at work, and your other sister "needing" $100 to get her hair colored because her usual stylist is out sick and she just HAS to get it done tonight. This allows you to be compassionate to others, without becoming a doormat.

My dad called me "bleeding heart" since I was a kid.
 
I'd say it is pretty much spot on.

Lol the person says this is the result they got. Their bias towards answers leaning towards this result is so obvious. They're usually twice as long and supported with more argument.
