Wow! I am amazed such a large percentage of the Pew Population got the Dow Jones question wrong. That is very sad.

I’m surprised I got it right and the States with same-sex marriage wrong.

You scored better than 96% of the public, below 1% and the same as 3%.

(I got the one about the Dow Chart wrong)

Their map for states allowing homosexual marriage is incorrect. Illinois allows it and it isn’t shaded gold.

Their map for states allowing homosexual marriage is incorrect.
= = = = = = = = = = = =
Not incorrect, incomplete.

They didn’t specify ALL they just said in common?? <: <:

‘They’ expect us to recognize their sovereignty and us treat their ‘couples’ like normal people.
MAYBE when ‘they’ recognize my states sovereignty and allow me to carry, I may go along with them.

‘Punch line from ‘old’ joke’....You have already established what you are, we are just negotiating a price.

12 out of 13. Missed the population pyramid one. I thought it was The Netherlands due to euthanasia. Should have given it more thought....

Those are the same ones I missed. I think they cooked the Dow Jones graphs, anyway.
