Take the question: The rich are taxed too highly. ... Well shit, are we talking about the rich in Sweden or Russia? In Russia, the rich pay a tax rate of 13%, too low by my thinking, and in Sweden they pay a rate above 50%, too high by my liking. But by answering that I disagree with this statement, thereotically I could be espousing that Russian billionaires are being significantly overtaxed. Also, a lot of the questions are really lacking in detail. For example: Those who are able to work, and refuse the opportunity, should not expect society's support. What is society's support? And do they mean all of society's supporting systems? If I agree with this statement am I suggesting that nonworkers should lose their constitutional rights? Or take: A significant advantage of a one-party state is that it avoids all the arguments that delay progress in a democratic political system. I would agree to this statement, but I still vehemetely oppose one party states for a variety of other reasons. However, this is the only real question regarding this specific concept and therefore by agreeing with it makes me seem pro-authority, when I'm really just agreeing with semantics. Plus there's no neutral answers, which makes answering certain questions problematic. Anyways here's mine: ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/pxuCE.png) Apparentely I'm to the left of Obama and the British Labour Party...hmmm. + Show Spoiler + I smell a bias! | ||

Some of the questions are absurd or just plain silly for sure though. Perhaps even quite biased in several cases. | ||

The questions were funny, I found myself wishing there was a more indifferent option. | ||

No surprises here. I want to see what non internet users look like on this graph because people on the internet tend to be more liberal. | ||
