Context: Lizzie Magie originally invented the game to teach about Georgism, which warned that rent/house prices would outpace any rises in wages, and worsen inequality. [Here’s a short video explaining it.](https://youtu.be/smi_iIoKybg?si=K8257LvDIsM5Qfxi) This message has long since been forgotten, and now people wonder why monopoly is so popular, despite being (intentionally) a not enjoyable game. Also, shameless plug for /r/Georgism

Not forgotten on accident. Hidden once Mattel or hasbro or who ever brought the rights to it got thier hands on it. Wouldnt want an anti-capitalism message in our cash cow now would we

To her credit, Monopoly is the most miserable boardgame that Ive ever had the misfortune of playing.
