The last time I applied for a job...No one asked me about the Powers and Duties of the President...But I could fill out all the forms IN ENGLISH and didn't need an interpreter.

Declare English the National Language...and print all ballots in English only...When is someone going to challenge the constitutionality of Foreign Language ballots. Citizenship REQUIRES English. Surely, the ballot does.

What a surprise..........

Forty percent of college graduates have no idea that corporate profits equal revenues minus expenses.

Which means 40% of Americans are eligible to be Treasury Secretary.

““Our study raises significant questions about whether citizens who voted in this year’s landmark presidential election really understand how our system of representative democracy works,” “

Perhaps there’s the answer, to register to vote you have to take and pass the test. No pass No Register & No Vote!

Why should any citizen know any of this. It’s not necessary when living in a socialist paradise. Slaves don’t need to know anything exept to hand over what they produce to the state. We have been so dumbed down that I fear we may never recover.

So black and sexy, you’re so fine
‘Cause I’ve got a crush on Obama

I cannot wait, ‘til 2008
Baby you’re the best candidate
I like it when you get hard
On Hillary in debate

I missed 4, but I admit I am an Economics dunderhead.

[Jotmo]

I missed this one.

30) Which of the following fiscal policy combinations would a government most likely follow to stimulate economic activity when the economy is in a severe recession?

A. increasing both taxes and spending

B. increasing taxes and decreasing spending

C. decreasing taxes and increasing spending

D. decreasing both taxes and spending

I answered "D". They said the answer was "C".

I take issue with that one. "D" wold be the best thing to do to help the economy.

Actually, "B" is what they're most likely to do, so I guess we're both wrong.

Only 88%, but I dispute one of my “wrong” answers.

I answered that if gov’t expenses equal tax receipts, there is no debt. The “correct” answer was that gov’t expenditure per citizen was equal.

I got all the history and political correct, mind you. Just a bit weaker than I’d like to admit being on the economic front. Time for some more reading of Mises etc.

I sure wish this was surprising. It’s like finding out that the surgeon who will be performing your operation has, instead of medical certifications, barely adequate qualifications in food preparation. And the anesthesia is just kicking in, and the room is spinning...
