If only.

What would you put on the exam? I'd start with some questions to test understanding of basic economic concepts.

I wouldn't have any tests, because I'm for freedom.

I really am with you on this one; we could even take it a bit further:

When you reach the age of 16, you take an IQ test. People with a below-average IQ should be forced to wear a daunce hat in public places, not permitted vote, breed or drive, and must wait in the 'D' lines in shopping centres.

Just think, no longer would our elitist society be held back by people who watch TV with their mouths open and smile at shiney things.

Obviously, people who cannot spell would be exempt from classification!

People should have a fundamental understanding of how a state works if they want to vote.

It's ridiculous that people who lack knowledge of even the most basic economic concepts have a word in the spending of my money.

Yea, it sucks almost as much as people trying to tell others how their money SHOULD be spent.

I don't see anything wrong with that.

Because the last time we had a literacy test before you can vote, THAT wasn't corrupt, and worked perfectly?
