Civics Exam
Here's a good test to take in an election year. It takes about 20 minutes. Don't cheat!
Let us know what you got via the comment section.
I answered 46 out of 60 questions correctly for a somewhat disappointing, 76.67%.

It would be financially irresponsible and perhaps unhealthy for you to trade like I do. This blog is for entertainment purposes only. I am a trader not an investor. I don't make recommendations. Thanks, have fun here.

ouch! 60% If it's any consolation to myself, I changed 3 answers that were correct. oooffaa
It was a hard exam... my Dad beat me by 4 points and was giving me shit about it.
But he's old... so I'll get the last laugh.

Not bad for somebody who doesn't live in the United States. :)
kiwiguy,
Impressive.
Listen... we're looking for someone to run this country over here... are you photogenic?

Same exact score. And I went back over the answers...should have scored higher...but then I'm not a very well-read guy when it comes to nineteenth century American and legal history.
Sobering. Confirms that I probably don't deserve my passport and have no business complaining about paying taxes. And my elected leaders should maybe just pay me to abstain so that I and others like me don't tank our political system.
My wife says I was many years ago. :)
I don't think I would want that job (of President) even if someone could give it to me (meaning I wouldn't have to go through the wretched process of campaigning and begging for money). In fact, I think you have to be somewhat delusional to even run for President.
We should get a change of government here this year (for the better). The (likely) new prime minister has a very interesting background. He made a bunch of money (global head of foreign exchange for Merrill Lynch), then returned to NZ to start a career in politics.
