Vague questions, poorly worded.

The 'grading' scale is very interesting though... I mean, the highest score you can get to get a 'postive' result is 4 Tongue

You're a state-worshipping authoritarian; you probably vote Democrat or Republican along strict party lines

This might qualify as the second worst test I have ever seen.  The first is the "How much do you know about Sept. 11th" Test on OKCupid.

I'm all for sending Bono to the moon and dropping him off there.  There's no government there, I'm sure he'll like it.

Does not believing September 11th was caused by Bush give you the result "OMG YOU WORSHIP GWB!!!!!!!!!!!!" or something? Smiley

There are some seriously biased questions in there, though.

If you don't pay taxes, you are stealing from society.
Actually not a bad question - one that the creators of the test should be forced to defend.

Huh

Defend what?  The 'answer' to this one is false.

Some people disagree with this, so it's not a bad question - I would just like to hear the crappy explanation why the site's owner would give.

It's not a bad question relative to the other ones on the test in that it makes an iota of sense.  The problem is that, on a good political test, the test's "centre" would have 50% on either side, or at least something approximate.  On this one, it's more like only 2% of the population on one side.

I happen to believe that if there was no government, there would still be roads. Just not as good ones. Tongue

The test is set up using a lot of pretend facts in an attempt to prove that Bush destroyed the towers and the Pentagon was hit by another Bush plant.

9.  Crap, I'm a Democrat or Republican AND I got the same score as jfern Tongue

And for the record, not this is NOT the single worst political test.  The political compass is the worst political test ever.
