What do you think? Please explain.

EDIT: There are several answers, obviously, but I want you to note how many people don't select "My Opinion" because they wish to side with someone else.

Honestly, I would say many people would subconsciously select "My Opinion" because they are never 100% completely agreeable with a certain viewpoint.

I went with "my opinion" since I am very egocentric.
 
Moderate decisions always work out for the best. To much of anything ( liberalism or conservatism) can throw a country out of balance, and thats what has happened in our economy. Not enough regulation has resulted in a temporary need for more regulation. Soon, we will again need reduced regulation, then more until our economy reaches it's equilibrium and can continue its steady growth.
 
A socialist opinion is considered the best opinion in my country. Many people who don't know very much about politics will think about socialists as nice people who wants to create equal opportunities for all and want rich people to take their share.

However, right wing people want to give tax cuts to the rich, and is also less environmental friendly, is not pro-immigration. Many would look at them as selfish. That's why socialism is the "best" opinion.

You do realize what an ironic post that is, yes?

My opinion is the best. I have mostly conservative and national/patriotic views.
 
13 people agree with me that my opinion is the best.
How wonderful. :)
 
A persons own view would be the best veiw. My views and what may make me happy doesnt fit everyone. So to say one view is the best would be false.

I am very conservative and prefer that lifestyle but I am well aware its not for everyone. I have no beef with even the most extream leftist's views as long as they are not trying to base how I should live based on their views. I grant them the same respect and this is one major reason I wish states still held the majority of power. If enough people wanted to live a socialist lifestyle (or any other) I have no problem with that and the states should be allowed to set up any flavor of government that the majority wants. Its the blanket government (Feds) that I have a issue with, and they greatly limit variety.

Moderate positions generally avoid such overbearing terms as always, since a moderate position requires different solutions in different situations, as you mentioned in your economics example. Just found it humorous in my own nerdy way.

Ahhh. How about this? Moderate positions can sometimes work better then absolute positions.

That's exactly right.

I think that whoever votes in this poll should technically be voting "my opinion" because I feel that everyone is arrogant enough to think their opinion is better than everyone else's. Its true, everyone thinks that no matter who you are.

I think if you disagree and say that you feel the need to side 100% with another opinion then your opinion really doesn't matter anyway because its someone else's. Why not be arrogant? Its only human.
 
I chose other since i believe that i open minded enough to listen to other opinions as a check to mine own.
 
Conservative opinion, obviously. It made America into a superpower.
 
Every opinion is the best opinion and every opposing opinion is even better than every opinion before it. The opinions that result from difficult ideals are the best opinions above all others, and those that disagree with those opinions are even more superior than that. The best opinions are those based on fact, logic, emotion, reason, moods, and every other opinion is even better than those.

Every opinion is the best opinion, and other opinions are an even higher class than those.

I would remind you that extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice. And let me remind you also that moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue.
