NOTE: Read the other post I made after this post and respond

Hey you guys wanted to get the pulse of OT for funsies

Post your results and discuss how well you think they match you

My results: Political Values

Progressivism 90

Socialism 18.75

Tenderness 43.75

Your test scores indicate that you are an open-minded ultra-progressive; this is the political profile one might associate with a journalist. It appears that you are skeptical towards religion, and have a generally optimistic attitude towards humanity in general.

Your attitudes towards economics appear laissez-faire capitalist, and combined with your social attitudes this creates the picture of someone who would generally be described as a libertarian.

To round out the picture you appear to be, political preference aside, a sensible realistic egalitarian with several strong convictions.

This concludes our analysis; we hope you found your results accurate, useful, and interesting.

Unlike many other political tests found on the Internet which base themselves on untested (and usually ideologically motivated) ideas, this inventory is adapted from Hans Eysenck's own political inventory which was developed after extensive empirical investigations in the 20th Century.

Fortunatus dislikes this.

2nd part of getting the pulse of OT consists of a simple exercise. Just post your answer. Maybe in a spoiler with an explanation.

Let's say that if an index card has a vowel written on one side then it has an even number written on the other side

On a table you see four cards as follows

A

88

7

K

How many cards do you have to flip over to be sure the above rule is followed. Which cards would you flip over?

Each card will have both a letter and number

This gif sums up my feelings towards this thread nicely:

Jasean take the test

What a waste of my valuable time.

I feel like clarifying number six, while I agree that financers and investors have caused the majority of our current financial problems (the word current is very important as it does not necessarily apply to other economic downturns) there are a myriad of other factors that contributed as well. The repeal of glass steagal comes to mind as does the idea that people only concern themselves with benefitting shareholders while not concerning themselves about the lives of the workers who keep their businesses functioning on a daily basis.
