Civics Quiz

Take the quiz and then look at the average results under "Report Card".

Scary!

Didn't Churchill say something about the strongest argument against democracy was a five minute conversation with a citizen on the street?

That was a good quiz. The report card clearly demonstrates the ignorance of my fellow citizens. :(

Myself, I scored 28 out of 33 (84.8%). Should have done better.

Glenn Beck is back to do Moron Trivia on Fridays, he asked some civics questions Friday, it was pretty sad.

I'm thinking more and more that you should have to pass a test to vote. Here's an idea right out of Starship Troopers, you aren't born a citizen, you have to earn it. That may be a little too far, but I do like the idea of passing a test to vote.

31 out of 33 and somewhat surprised I did that well. Thought most of the politics and government questions were pretty easy, but struggled on some of the economics questions.

Am I that smart? No. I just grew up in a time when schools put more emphasis on teaching and less on indoctrination.
