Politics

SimCity For Republicans

Misc

I have never been a big gamer, well except for SimCity. That has been the one game I have been hooked on since it first came out 20 years ago. You are the mayor of a city and you have a budget. You decide where the funds go, and what areas get zoned what. If […]
