Do you *really* believe in the Pareto Principle?
Take this quiz, courtesy of Alina Stefanescu (nor should you neglect her recent post, "What does the increase in Romanian exports really mean?). My results:
Your Moralising Quotient is: 0.10.
Your Interference Factor is: 0.00.
Your Universalising Factor is: 1.00.
In other words, I am pretty libertarian. The questions about the dead cat and the dead chicken didn't even make me break a sweat; after all, do I not think that people should have more sex?
