Miscellaneous:

National Budget Simulation: This site allows you to change a part of government spending and see how it will affect other spending categories or taxes.  You can decide whether you require a balanced budget or set a limit on the size of the deficit you are willing to create.  Even with the limitations set out in this simulation, you quickly get the feel of the very real tradeoffs associated with policymaking. 

How the Government Creates a Budget:  This site, hosted by the White House,  takes you through the process of how the government creates a budget.
