Was that 10 or 100? I'm not making fun. It's just an outlier so I ask.

The site is a libertarian site so they probably ask questions that are hot-buttons for libers.

I think national ID is similar to the old movies where the man says, "all right show me your papers." Closest to what we now have would probably be a passport.

these so called test are moronic, or moranic according to a tea party protester.
Here's one question-

" The wealthy shouldn't pay a larger proportion of their income in tax than the poor."

the larger question is "what constitutes income"?
There are volumnes of laws defining income and this survey distills it to a simple singularity. It's BS.

Gotta love question # 3- adults and sex and laws. If you do not answer "no" then consenting adults could have sex in public anywhere, any time. Like in the middle of a congress session. Who in their right mind agrees with that? duh...

Or adults with drugs- do you really want kindergarten teachers with LSD?
No government handouts to business? Therefore no EO to minorities whatsoever?

It's a faulty quiz.

Your PERSONAL issues Score is 70%

Your ECONOMIC issues Score is 90%

According to your answers, the political group that agrees with you most is...

LIBERTARIAN

Like there was a doubt...

I'm shocked. I thought this was a comprehensive, definitive, be-all, end-all political quiz.

Actually for this group you are middle-of-the-road in terms of libertarian.

You are more extreme in terms of your conservatism.

partial results

I'll work up a more detailed analysis in a bit.

An interesting result is the deviancy factor, how far one deviates from the mean. The results may be amusing.

Wouldn't be the first time I was called a deviant.
