乐鱼 体育 and Brookings Institution Launch New Serious Game: The Fiscal Ship
All along the campaign trail, presidential candidates continue to make promises they can鈥檛 keep. They promise to give voters trillions in tax cuts while also balancing the budget and protecting popular programs from budget cuts.
Fact-checking journalists and spreadsheet-wielding advocates of fiscal responsibility challenge those assertions but reach a small slice of the population. So we asked: What else can be done to communicate the scale and scope of the debt problem?

It鈥檚 called , and we鈥檙e hoping you鈥檒l join us for its launch on April 26, and see it for yourself.
Rising federal debt isn鈥檛 a game. It鈥檚 a real problem鈥攁nd many Americans know that. We hope you鈥檒l join us to play The Fiscal Ship and spread the word about actual solutions to the dangers of rising debt.
