Help Me Create A Better Political Compass

Alright, so you know those political compass things? There are a few variations. The best ones I've found are the one I linked before, and spekr. However, I have issues with both of them.

So, I'm working on creating a political compass of my own, with 3 dimensions instead of 2. (Figuring out how to portray that is an ongoing activity.) I'm going to need a lot of people to help, by taking a few surveys beforehand, in order to make it good.

If you'd like to help, you can start by taking this 11 question survey. You'll have to log into your google account to take it (this is to deter potential spammers), but I will not know any details about anyone who took it. It is entirely anonymous.

I messed up the original survey a bit, so it's updated now. Unfortunately, I also lost the 10ish responses I got so far, so if you've taken it sorry about that. You can still take it again, if you want.

The final version will (probably) have a 5 point thing – strongly agree to strongly disagree.

I'm only so good at math and finding correlations, and was worried including more options on these ones might complicate it too far to actually make it. These ones are for finding the connections between where people say they are and what they believe.
