Did you know monopoly was created as a game to critique rent seeking monopoly capitalism?

Yep
Also there’s a bank 😂
Yes, did you know they shrunk JP Morgan's nose for his icon caricature?
Did you know that monopolies can only exist with government force?
A free market free from government coercion doesn't have monopolies, since anyone is free to compete.
Having no competitors would mean that one is providing a service or product that no one else is willing or able to provide.
This is yet another example of business people and those with wealth taking the heat for things government causes.
Government started lobbying by using force against businesses. Government protection and force is the only possible monopoly.
Rent seeking isn't bad if it's a service that others are demanding.
Monopoly capitalism isn't a real thing. Capitalism can't exist where government force is used economically. All economies currently are mixed.
Stop blaming capitalism and the wealthy people creating shit for you. Fraud is a crime. Being rich isn't and shouldn't be.

monopy deal is interesting one to notice patternes of social dinamics. patterns. beliefs. hopes. expectations. once emotions are involved the game becomes boring same as in real life.
i learned a lot to recognize myself through this game.
