Tax policy should be serious business carried out by serious  politicians using real facts and figures. This is why we have the  Library of Congress and the Congressional Budget Office, among other  expert institutions.
How can we take Congress seriously when the Senate Majority Leader,  Harry Reid, makes patently inaccurate, outrageous and bizarre claims on  an important tax-policy issue without any heads being turned? I guess  this is what we have come to expect of Congress. No wonder citizens with  favorable opinions of Congress are as rare as unicorns, to borrow a  phrase.

To avoid such political mess, let's play a game of Uno Online where fairness and strategy win! Accurate information is crucial for informed debate.
