This quiizzes can be quite maddening, since the questions can be very much open to interpretation. I answered them all based solely on the federal government.

another flawed question : “49. When corporate interests become too powerful, the state should take action to ensure the public interest is served.”

It assumes that the state stepping in will serve the public interest rather than making those corporate interests even more powerful.

Apparently I’m the only one here who doesn’t think we need our soldiers in every God forsaken hell hole on planet earth, subject to question interpretation, of course.

Another thing. between a couple af questions, I said that America should not intervene anywhere unless to protect our own interests. So it put me down as someone who thinks America ‘should intervene around the world’.

I don't think our soldier should be, but the test claims I do.

What gives? This test essentially labeled me a slightly more conservative Scott Brown.

On question 49, and others like it, I assumed that government was working AS IT SHOULD, IAW the constitution, and in this case I answered “Strongly Agree” (WE THE PEOPLE ARE the government; no one, including corporations, should be able to tyrannize the public.)

10. Sometimes war is necessary, even if it means you strike first.

14. If our leader meets with our enemies, it makes us appear weak.

15. We must use our military from time to time to protect our supply of oil, to avoid a national crisis.

30. It does not make sense to understand the motivations of terrorists because they are self-evidently evil.

33. It is wrong to question a leader in wartime.

36. Toppling enemy regimes to spread democracy will make the world a safer place.

44. It is not our place to condemn other cultures as backwards or barbaric.

45. When one group is slaughtering another group somewhere in the world, we have a responsibility to intervene.

Some of these are so laughably vague as to be almost impossible to answer. For example, private citizens should question their leaders all the times. However, the Speaker of the House shouldn't go to a country that sponsors terrorism and bash the President's foreign policy (Nancy in Syria).

I started to take the “test” and found the questions to be written in a way that grossly distorts the issues in question. It’s far too simplistic to be of any value.
