2.78/-.36. I'm nothing but a damn moderate. Self loathing ensues. In my defense, some of those questions were pretty tricky double negatives. In my haste I may have mischaracterized myself.

As with many of these tests, the questions are not very good. "If economic globalisation is inevitable, it should primarily serve humanity rather than the interests of trans-national corporations." What if the interest of trans-national corporations are often the same as the interest of humanity? This question seems to assume that are not just different but opposed. "I'd always support my country, whether it was right or wrong." You could support the country, while opposing the wrongful action. "The enemy of my enemy is my friend." Does "temporary ally" qualify as friend or do you have to actually have warm emotional feelings towards them? And that is just from the first page out of 6. Tim
