The game Monopoly is going back to a gilded era in America where powerful robber barons like Vanderbilt, J.P. Morgan, Rockefeller, Carnegie & Ford had the world in their hands!

BTW, it is embarrassing how many comments address the "pretty girl" and speak nothing of content. SMH

He rich should carry the majority of the tax burden and there should be initiatives for small business. It would be much better for 99 per cent of society.

Relax. You sound like you're going to jump out of your skin. And not for nothing her version looked more complicated than the remake. They should have given her royalties. But would then she give royalties to Henry George too ? And what is this really about ? Another let's find a way to hate men even more story ?
