More climate hoax propaganda for children: iCivics "Executive Command" game gives kids zero points if they'd prefer not to spend federal dollars trying to prevent bad weather

As I quite often do, I was blogging about the global warming hoax this morning when my eight-year-old son began playing the iCivics "Executive Command" game recommended by his teacher.   Kids pretend to be the President, and the game helpfully informs them what is or is not "good policy". 

According to this game, supporting the climate hoax is "good policy".

What Is iCivics? | iCivics
iCivics (formerly Our Courts) is a web-based education project designed to teach students civics and inspire them to be active participants in our democracy. iCivics is the vision of Justice Sandra Day O'Connor, who is concerned that students are not getting the information and tools they need for civic participation, and that civics teachers need better materials and support.

Maybe we should request that the developers of the iCivics game provide us with the cost/benefit data upon which they base the game so that we can FINALLY see a cost/benefit analysis of some kind.
