The Weekend Quiz – September 1-2, 2018
Welcome to The Weekend Quiz. The quiz tests whether you have been paying attention or not to the blog posts that I post. See how you go with the following questions. Your results are only known to you and no records are retained.
Three out of three. Honestly, I found the questions this week very difficult, and a great deal of guesswork was involved. Question one I didn’t understand whether the tax revenue exceeded the spending or not.
I got the answer to the spam script question right.
My answers are that the other questions are ‘rubbish’. I’m used to scoring low, so I can take another 0/3 score.
(Hope you’re feeling better.)
2 out of 3 this week..
Thank you Bill, for all your efforts to spread the MMT word.
It is appreciated..
I think I’d better take another look at the questions!
Well I had a go, and after answering questions my wife posed, I managed to get the three answers correct! (She’s a wizard with MMT.)
Lance,
I agree so I got the answer to Q1 wrong. Other two right.
2/3 cause I assumed with question 1 that the government tax-spend gap was a government deficit not a surplus… ‘gap’ to me means ‘deficit’ or implies a deficiency rather than savings…. Oh well ;-)
At least we didn’t need to calculate the marginal propensity to consume this week ;-)
