The Fiscal Ship – Let’s Play! 

The Fiscal Ship game challenges you to put the federal budget on a sustainable course. Measured as a share of gross domestic product, the federal debt is higher than at any time since the end of World War II and projected to climb to unprecedented levels.  But budget decisions are not only about fiscal sustainability. They also shape the kind of country we live in. To win the game, you need to find a combination of policies that match your values and priorities AND set the budget on a sustainable course.

You will not be judged on whether you win or lose the game. Instead, your decision making processes will be evaluated to see if they align with the principles we’ve studied this unit.

After playing the Fiscal Ship game (and you can play it until you’re satisfied with your result), please submit your plan. After submitting, choose “View My Plan” and take a screenshot or copy to clipboard and paste into Word file
