A friend of mine forwarded this simple 11 question quiz to me this morning. What's truly shocking is small number of Americans who got all 11 correct.

I got 10 out of 11. The only one I missed was how many people are obese. Guess I just have a lot of fat friends.

I got all the questions right but I could not remember if I was a ''mail or a fe-mail'' and I got my age wrong. I didnt know if they wanted me to put down ''reform school'' in the educational part or not.
Other than that the test was pretty easy.

Thank a vet for your freedom...

10 out of 11 here as well. Missed the one about Medicare. I feel a little better after seeing it was the one most missed.
I think tests like this should be given before you are allowed to vote

Got 10 out of 11. I overestimated the number of obese people.

Here's Your Score: You correctly answered 11 out of the 11 possible questions, which means you did better on the quiz than 98% of the general public.

Guess I read too much news

I guess we are a pretty well informed group. I got 10 of the 11. Missed the Medicare one. I said the debt.

I also answered all 11 correctly. The only one I debated about was the question on
obese people as I think the BMI puts too many tall people in that category. I'm just surprised that so many people missed more than one or two questions. Obviously RV'rs are much better informed than the general public!

Didn't have a clue as to who founded facebook. I have never visited there, but have heard about it. Got all the others.
