Impeached 2 is an armchair politician's dream. Play today!

In an unexpected twist that has left political analysts scratching their heads and strategy game enthusiasts crowing with delight, the United States Congress has recently passed a piece of legislation that is said to be "inspired" by the popular board game RISK. Dubbed the "Global Strategy Act of 2023," this new law mandates that all future policies affecting global science and technology initiatives must be first vetted through a RISK-like simulation.

Senator Future-Forward (R-Foresight) and his fellow visionary legislator, Representative Innovate (D-Visionary), introduced the bill with a straight face, claiming that the game's mechanics would provide a unique perspective on international relations and the geopolitical implications of futuristic technologies. "We believe that by playing out scenarios in a controlled environment, we can better anticipate potential risks and opportunities," explained a spokesperson for the congressional duo.

The legislation has been met with a mixture of astonishment and skepticism. Critics argue that basing foreign policy on the outcome of a game, where players conquer territories through a combination of strategy and luck, is not only irresponsible but also akin to making critical decisions based on a roll of the dice.

However, supporters of the bill, including a coalition of futurists, technologists, and game theorists, are ecstatic. They believe that the game's emphasis on resource management, alliance-building, and strategic planning is a perfect model for crafting international policy. "In RISK, players must constantly adapt to a changing board. Similarly, our global strategies must be flexible and dynamic to keep pace with the rapid advancements in science and technology," said Dr. Gadget, a leading member of the Futurist Policy Institute.

The first simulation, held in a secure, undisclosed location, saw top legislators and experts donning color-coded arm bands and attempting to outmaneuver one another for global dominance in sectors ranging from AI to space exploration. The session ended abruptly when the Vice President of Technological Triumph (R-Technotopia) accidentally declared war on the Moon, claiming it as a strategic asset for the United States.

As the country watches with bated breath, the Global Strategy Act of 2023 is set to revolutionize the way Congress approaches futuristic science and technology, for better or for worse. And if the Moon becomes a U.S. territory due to a RISK-induced policy blunder, at least we'll have a game to thank for the new lunar embassy.
