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.
