World's Smallest Political Quiz
This online test Political Quiz may be useful. However I found offering only 3 choices limiting. That is agree - neutral - disagree isn't enough.
I'm asking that a whole bunch of us take this and post our results. No agenda, no gotcha, let's just look. I suggest we do it differently than the online quiz. 5 answers: 1 = Strongly agree 2 = Somewhat agree 3 = neutral - no strong feelings 4 = Somewhat disagree 5 = Strongly disagree First 5 questions - this determines Personal Index (PI): 1. Government should not censor speech, press, media, or internet. 2. Military service should be voluntary. There should be no draft. 3. There should be no laws regarding sex for consenting adults. 4. Repeal laws prohibiting adult possession and use of drugs. 5. There should be no National ID card. - Compute total score for questions, eg. If you strongly agree with all 5 your score is 5 points. Strongly disagree your score is 25 points. Next 5 questions - this determines Economic Index (EI): 1. End "corporate welfare." No government handouts to business. 2. End government barriers to international free trade. 3. Let people control their own retirement; privatize Social Security. 4. Replace government welfare with private charity. 5. Cut taxes and government spending by 50% or more. How to convert raw data from above into results. Answer set of 5. Add up the numbers. I get 8. You'll get what you get. Then use this simple formula - Results = -5 x (score) + 125; for me PI = (-5x8)+125 = 85 & EI = (-5x10)+125 =75 Final results: PI/EI = 85/75 --- Let's put up the numbers and see what we get.
