@Weirdaholic @alice Monopoly players each start with $1,500. If they play the game according to its capitalistic rules, one becomes rich, the rest lose everything, and the bank still is wealthier than any of them.

But if the players decide to ignore capitalism, they could just split all the money that came with the monopoly set: $20,580. If there are four players, that's over $5,000 each, or more than three times what they start with – plus countless houses and hotels.

Doesn't it make more sense to tell capitalism to fuck itself, divide all the wealth equitably, and then, I don't know, go play Jenga or something? #DemSoc
