Another Budget Game

I like to think that Gotham Gazette's "Balance!":http://www.gothamgazette.com/article/gamesandquizzes/20090209/201/2822 inspired the folks over at the Washington Post to create an even better "budget game of their own":http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/metro/dc/budget-game/ but I am open to the possibility that they came up with it all on their own. Take a look at both if you haven't already. The Post's works a lot (a lot!) like our game, but I'd say the layout that they came up with is a far more effective way to display the available information. On the other hand, I really like the way we handled revenue, by creating a menu of real and specific proposals like a bag tax or sales tax changes. Their menu of options is much more limited in that regard. So there you have it. One more budget game -- my question (as ever) is ... is this really a game? As I check that category box for "Games and Virtual Worlds" a budget balancing widget seems a bit faint. Unlike the Post's game, though, ours is available for re-use and re-purposing. Let me know if you'd like to tinker with the skeleton of it!
