Could you pass a US Citizenship test?

Post by Fauxia »

Here, take this, to see if you can pass a Murican citizenship test. I got 10/10, if you’re American and miss it, I will be ashamed of you. Not difficult, I can’t believe many Americans would fail this if they had to have it.

Okay, I could accept you if you get 8 or 9 out of 10, I guess. But get 10 for me to not ever look down on you

I got an 8/10 because I missed the senator questions.

Hey, I still passed.

I cheated, but without cheating I would have gotten 8/10, most likely - wasn't 100% sure on there being no Secretary of Communications but I was pretty sure communication (telephone lines, internet, etc.) was not a US federal power (it is, indirectly, in Australia through our Constitution), thought it may be: I'm still not sure (https://www.ntia.doc.gov/about). Can someone clarify me on that? Also, there's no way I would know what the hell the USA's 'tax day' is - I thought you would have abolished taxes by now :P

You see occasional references to April 15 in American culture and politics.

Telecommunication is regulated in the US through the commerce clause, which gives the federal govt power over interstate commerce. The same power exists in Australia, as does the corporations power, both of which probably sufficient on their own.

I got 9/10 - I got the senate question wrong and I answered the fiscal thing at random and got it right.

10/10

Though I will admit I guessed about half of them. I didn't actually know for sure how many members there are in the House of Representatives. I also didn't know how many people were in the senate. But after I guessed the latter it eliminated two of the choices for the former so my chances of getting it right were 50/50.

I guessed on that one as well. I figured that if there was a Secretary of Communication it would be the head of the FCC and I know for a fact that the head of the FCC isn't a cabinet-level position.
