Take the Civics Test and Don't Cheat

[Pennywise]

If taxes equal government spending, then:
Your Answer: government is not helping anybody
Correct Answer: tax per person equals government spending per person on average

See, I think this is wrong on the part of the test, because Tax per person is not even close to fully spent on the person. Byt the time the tax goes through the government sieve, a large portion of it has been pissed away on bureaucratic waste. So I stand by my answer.

Being against the Tea Party and the GOP doesn't make one a Democrat.

Being ignorant typically does, though.

If there are any logic tests online it might be best for you to skip them.

Awww, are you pouting little one?

Sorry, it must be embarrassing to be so wrong when you just told us about how right you were on 33 other points.

You must not read my posts.

I posted my real score. And I knew that this thread would suddenly be flooded with geniuses after I linked to that test.

I posted my "real score;" but dude, I have a masters degree, where you are entering 10th grade (for the third time.) There is a HUGE gulf between your education and mine, I found the test to be extremely basic.

I really didn't expect anyone to post their true scores. I scored 100% on that assumption.

Then why did you say you scored 68.7% in the first post?

97.96%. and only because i misread the last question.

Some of them were ambiguous. Seems like a pretty worthless quiz. But anyone who couldn't get more than 50% needs to never vote.

How like a hysterical Democrat fanatic to assume that anybody who turns out smarter than him, must be lying.

Yeah not surprising coming from her though.

I don't know how anyone could miss more than one or two of those questions for misreading. It was a piece of cake.

But then im just a dumb right winger.

Agenda questions at the end.

Exactly. That's why I don't believe these high scores.

What am I wrong about?

I missed the last one on the debt, I misread debt as deficit and picked the first answer instead of the right one.

What did you score? honestly?

Figures you would be a hack on this, like you are on any post.

As did I. And i misread the actual correct answer. Go figure.

93.94%, 31 out of 33, though I'll be honest and admit if it wasn't multiple choice that score would be much lower, lol

Except you don't have to be a genius to do well on this test. Heck, you could do it with a proper high school education.

This is classic.

A leftist Democrat can't believe so many conservatives are turning out smarter than he is.

Inevitable though it was.

Yes, some of the questions were biased and ambiguous, making scores of over 90% highly suspicious.

This thread proves that people will lie when they know they can't be held accountable.

Thanks for playing.

I think you make a fair argument.

Not only smarter but certainly more honest.

And I'm not a Democrat. If you're so smart, surely you know that one can register as an Independent?

And the downside of that is an Independent cannot vote in closed primaries, right, genius?

Well, there is a reason she isn't conservative. And it's precisely because she doesn't know these things.
