Quiz Time: Is it modern-day capitalism or a cult?

1. OK, Their predictions are used and referred to and treated as credible, and when they're wrong, let's just pretend they never said it.

What's being described here:

Pat Robertson making an annual prediction that the United States will face catastrophe and nuclear armed terrorists?
OR
Wall Street's stocks going up during 2003 would mean that the Iraq War would go smoothly and quickly and other predictions by Wall Street brokers?

2. If they're going down, they're taking everyone else down with them?

What's being described here:

Jim Jones and the Peoples Temple?
OR
The "too big to fail" banks?

3. There's this number that supposedly serves as a measure of how good and trustworthy you are.

What's being described here:

The Church of Scientology using e-meters to see how "clear" you are?

How did you do?
OR
Your credit rating?
