Budget Hero

Budget Hero is a Flash based interactive game from American Public Media (the MarketPlace people).

The game lets you play with the multiple levers the Federal Government has and see how the national debt performs. Are you for big Government? big defense spending? tax cuts?

Play the game and see.


I left all the Bush tax cuts alone and played the cards like Cap and Limit Greenhouse gases and increase Federal gasoline tax (yes the 18 cent tax that McCain and Hillary wanted waived). But it is hard to see the macroeconomic impact from the results. Here is mine.
