Is this the same quiz that is on the DN website? I did it yesterday, and I think Moderaterna, Kristdemokraterna and Folkpartiet formed the top 3...

Almost a 4-way tie for 2nd place, with the Social Dems missing by a percentage point.
Here are a few more ones where it's hard to tell what side an agree/disagree lands you on:
Q12: The negative sides of globalisation can be fought with a Tobin Tax. (Small tax levied on international capital transactions - Trans. Rem.)
Well, with a loaded question like that, I don't know if saying I disagree means "nope, globilazation can't be fought at all, let's surrender;" "no, globilization is actually good and we should embrace it;" or "no, a mere Tobin Tax will not suffice to fight globiliaztion, we need to radically close our borders and take drastic action." Because all those stances would disagree with the statement. Somewhat similar with
Q19: Patients should be able to pick doctors themselves, even when recieving specialist care.
How does the health care system in Sweden work? Here in America, we can pick whatever doctor we want... if he's willing to take us, and we can pay for it. Yet somehow knowing Sweden I don't think saying "agree" means you want an American system. But if you do agree in a state-run system... can doctors be forced to take more patients than they want, because the patients have the choice now? How about really good specialists being forced to "waste time" with cases far below their caliber because the patient wanted them? This could be a really weird situation, I'd be curious what people say about it.

It's a strange question, because patients can already pick whatever damn doctor they like if they have the cash. No, what the question is really dealing with is subsidised healthcare, something the vast majority of people in Sweden use. Up until the mid-nineties, the only way to have the state (or rather, the tax-financed national health insurance scheme) support your visit to the doctor financially would be if you went to a hospital or local health clinic. Then the ruling right-wing government changed the rules so that people could take their insurance money to private doctors should they so choose. However, you still need a refference from your personally chosen doctor in order to get financing for a visit to a specialist. The idea here is that you should get state money to go directly to any specialist should he accept it, rather than having to go to one approved by your local doctor.
