Believe it or not, this underscores a whole lot of our problems with China.

The answers about economics I would venture to say have an even lower score...

China is operating in its own little world.

Many Chinese are prone to have a hook line and sinker acceptance of the Party line.

Many are angry at America only because they are ignorant to what America is all about. That is just the way the CCP likes it.

I'm still trying to figure out how cold, dispassionate, value-free empirical "science" proves dat de oppressed pipples should, de 'ow you say, rise up against deir oppressors and make de, 'ow you say, de rewolution.

Which great scientist "proved" that oppression is "morally wrong?" Was it Galileo, Newton, or Darwin? Or perhaps some chemist somewhere conducted a controlled experiment in a test tube (complete with a test sample) that proves "scientifically" that what the Left is against is "morally wrong." Seeing how the Left bases its entire worldview on hard, unsentimental, objective empirical science.

Unfortunately, the survey revealed that only 1.4 per cent of those surveyed could answer more than 20 of the questions. That was 1.2 percentage points higher than the 1996 figure, but well behind the figures for developed countries, the Association says. In the US, the figure was 5 per cent in 1985 and 7 per cent in 1990.

Wow, this whole article was about China, but look at the American scores...not much better. This is sad.

Does anyone have a link to the test questions?

Hey, at least most of them beleive the Earth is more than 6,000 years old, and they have the human artifacts to prove it.

If only 10% of Chinese are well educated, that is still 100 million people. Maybe they want the masses to be ignorant, just like the elite in America want the masses to be ignorant sheeple.

Answers to an economics quiz in any 'capitalist' country would make an intelligent man weep.

They should survey the American liberals. That would definately make them feel better.
