I can't really answer such questions without wondering about how the answers will be interpreted.
For instance, take
A significant advantage of a one-party state is that it avoids all the arguments that delay progress in a democratic political system.
That's mostly a statement of facts, yet if I answer that I agree, it will presumably be interpreted as me being "authoritorian" or something, although I completely disagree with one-party states for other obvious reasons.

I’m with Klaus, that statement requires context to provide any useable data.

I know we’ve done something like it before a long time ago.
If we did it a few weeks ago I missed it.
But the answer to your question is yes.

We just did one of these here a month ago. The questions annoyed me for those same reasons.
