I am embarrassed to say I only got 88%. Please take the test and post your scores to see how much smarter GLPers are than the Elected officials that are supposed to support the document they know so little about. You can take the quiz as many times as you want, but please post your first score hear.
To simplify the posting here is a poll.
It was not untill I got to question 25 that I realized that this so called quiz is not so much a quiz, as it is a right wing peice of bullshit propaganda !
So called ''free enterprise'' would never work without fascist polocies which favor corporations and buisneses over consumers.The original American ''consumers''were the Native Americans and they derived their needs,''consumed''from the natural commons.This form of consumption could not be allowed to continue by the capitalists, because such consumption fails to deliver profits to the capitalists.The early US capitalists would have never risen to power absent the implimentation of government polocies which demanded the removal of the original American ''consumers''.
