33 question Civics test.

Average score by Americans is 49%
Average score by college professors: 55%

I surprised myself. Apparently not as dumb as I thought I was. I scored
84.8%

For a canuck, I think I did pretty good on my first try:

You answered 24 out of 33 correctly — 72.73 %

I wrote them on the question of "If taxes equal government spending,
then:".... there technically was no right option. debt is not the same
as deficit. You can have debt with a zero deficit.

numb-de-plum could try all day and not get 50%.


Next time take it yourself.
