I don't want to sound overly harsh, but I don't think I will rate this one well. This looks like a hurried, "I've got to get something shot for the challenge and don't know what to shoot!" type of shots.
It's out of focus, not a real interesting image, and not real strong on the journalism part except for the title.
Take a look around at others in the challenge and find ones you think are great to compare to this one.
As much as I wish it were, probably not. The govt. is already trying to tax it into oblivion. Good subject for challenge, although the shot is a bit OOF and the most colorful part (blue thing) sort of draws attention away from subject.
