Is Sims City the basis of Herman Cain's 9-9-9 plan?

I was just reading an article about the 9-9-9 plan, and recognized just where he came up with the idea: Sims City! So I began searching for more info about the plan, and came up with this article: http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/trending-now/herman-cain-9-9-9-plan-coming-simcity-160214953.html (http://yahoo.com)
Who would have thought we have come so close to running out of idea's to fix this country that we would have to resort to using the sims? :rofl:

Don't vote for Herman Cain!

... He doesn't tax heavy industry at 13% like you're supposed to.

Well, as is pointed out in the article, "...there aren’t any cheat codes to make the math work in real life."
