  1. 100 - but it was obvious what they were looking for

    70. Humans are funny. I think at our core we are naturally good and honest. We are the only beings capable of "morality", and the only ones who define it. But we also have this incredible tendency to create heirarchial power structures that strongly compel us towards or even necessitate dishonesty and ruthlessness.

  3. Of course there are a bunch of people that appear to have no redeeming value at all. However let us see where 426653478 would be without the middle class to do all the things he probably thinks he is too good to do.

  5. You and your wife are a couple of regular "Bonnie and Clyde's".

    You and your wife would think nothing about cheating on each other. Nice example of humanity.

    I got a 67, "high mach". I think the main reason it's not higher is because I think people will only cheat and steal when they can't otherwise succeed, rather than what the quiz says (that they will cheat and steal at every opportunity.)

    IMO if you scored >90 or <10, then you need serious help!

    Interesting to note that all the high-machs gladly posted their scores while the low-machs did not. Could this potentially imply that low-machs, _are_ submissive and dependent??

    lol

  10. If people natural instincts were to cheat and steal then we would have millions more in prisons.

    The normal tendency is for people is to be honest and helpful. People want to help.

    Its the rare individual who looks in terms of what he can steal or take from someone else.

    I scored 67 too but I answered a lot of questions as neutral.
