Slap greedy CEOs and save the US economy

Not that we really can do it, but with the new online game from AddictingGames.com, you can slap greedy CEOs and save the US economy virtually.

Trillion Dollar Bailout gameThe new game Trillion Dollar Bailout game starts you off the New York City skyline, with tall buildings at the top portion of the screen and houses below. You are given $1,000,000,000.00 money to play with (WOW!).

You can decide whether to use these money to grant requests of CEO for additional bailout funds.

In the game, corporate CEOs in suit and homeowners pop out from the buildings and houses, each one requesting for taxpayer-funded handouts. You decide whether to grant this request or knock out the requester with a slap.

You do that by clicking on a money bag icon below (to handout money) or an icon which looks like a hand (to give a slap). A graph below the play screen graphs your actions and show whether the economy is “saved” or “tanks.”

The game’s slogan is “punish greedy fat cats and save honest people.”

Honestly, I really don’t understand the game and finds it hard to discren whether to give or to slap, but watching people fly as you slap them is fun.

After playing a round, here’s what the screen showed me.

Economy saved!

I guess I won.

What did I do? Well, I just slapped as much CEO as I can. :)
