Some of the questions are weird. Like for example
A significant advantage of a one-party state is that it avoids all the arguments that delay progress in a democratic political system.
Well of course that would be a significant advantage to getting something done but would that be a advantage to the society - probably not.
Your political compass
Economic Left/Right: -0.75
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: 0.26

Yeah it is an advantage but I think you could say that the advantage is outweighed by the disadvantages of the system.
Hmmmnnn.

I hate tests like these. The questions are usually loaded, and there's not always a good answer. For instance:
This question assumes the two things are mutually exclusive. They are not.
Again, they're falsely assuming mutual exclusivity. The Philips Curve was pretty much disproven in the 70's anyway.
Yes, this is a fundamentally "good" idea, but not one that a government should implement. In a family, the baby sister shouldn't be fed according to how much she contributes to the productivity of the household.
