Piece Of The Pie

Here's a quiz on the economic situation from New York Magazine.  It was given to 50 people also busy occupying Wall Street, so you can compare. (Though I can't tell if the questions were open--giving us the pie chart responses makes it multiple choice.)

Any reasonably informed person should do pretty well.  How did the Occupiers do?  A majority got the right answer 2 out of 9 times.  Of course, there were a bunch of times "don't know" won, so at least they're being honest. (And one question just asks for an opinion.)

Most predictably, a majority believed the highest earners paid taxes at a low rate, and the military is the biggest expenditure in our budget.
