Some people think of politics as a game. But an online game makes people(26)think of themselves doing one of the hardest jobs in American politics: cutting the federal budget. The game is called Budget Hero.
Students in Los Angeles and other cities have been playing it. Budget Hero lets them(27)decide how they want to spend federal tax dollars. The game uses information from the(28)Congressional Budget Office. It shows what effects each cost-cutting proposal would have.
The game was developed in 2008. In the newest(29)version, students make decisions about what spending is important to them. Do they want to reduce taxes?(30)Spend more on environmental protection? What should they do about defense spending? Making these decisions helps(31)clarify their goals.
Jane Harmon, a former Democratic(32)representative from California who has served in Congress for almost twenty years, offered students some ideas. She now heads the Woodrow Wilson Center for International Scholars, which helped create Budget Hero. More than one million people have played it(33)so far, she says, and she thinks they have learned at least two things. One is how hard it is and the other is that it can be done if there’s a will to do it. Ms. Harmon also says the students are having more(34)success than Congress at cutting the budget. She says that kids, and actually adults too who play this game, have open minds and they want to learn what the facts are. And sadly, a lot of Congress is a fact-free universe, and that is(35)tragic for the country.
