    Some of these questions are stupid though, and kind of misleading. The question "One of the advantages to a one-party system is lack of gridlock" is one of them. Of course that's an advantage, that's a yes/no question, but that doesn't mean I want a one-party system. That doesn't have anything to do with my political beliefs and is just a high school government question of true or false.

    It was worded differently, but it was the same concept.

    Here it is: A significant advantage of a one-party state is that it avoids all the arguments that delay progress in a democratic political system.

    Of course, that's fact. That's an advantage. But that doesn't mean I want it given all the other baggage that a one-party system brings.

    Yeah there were a number of questions like that. Quite a few that presented a complex issue as T/F as well.
    And * was with the Marx quote ? I was like "is this a trap question to test our ignorance ?"

    that's great.I done this about a year and a half ago and remember being quite far on the left but this time around I am half way into the right. I'm not sure if that is because my general look on the world has changed or if I understand the questions better this time around. sorry for the big bump.

    TBH it confirms to me I am just happy to live in my own little world and take each day as it comes.

    Was involved in that though and the Falklands through my job but thats life, I personally dont like political side of things as there will always be rights and wrongs viewed differently.
