I don't like these political quizzes that asks for your opinion of the purpose of government but it never makes a distinction between federal, state, and local governments.

If you don't know 'where it's going' by the name of the quiz (and the thread) then you're a complete moron.



The name of the quiz is "how progressive are you" ....what did you think it was going to ask?
Which edition of the bible Americans should be forced to memorize?
