The Anti-Monololy Board Game

Finally, it's time to solve the financial crisis. At least we can start solving it by playing an anti-monopoly game, and once we master the game, we can apply its principles to real life. Check out the Anti-Monopoly Board Game. This is what Uncommon Goods has to say about the game:

"It's the real estate game for the 21st century! Inspired by the original Monopoly game, Anti-Monopoly is where free-market competitors clash with ruthless monopolists...you just have to decide which one you want to be. Players who choose to be competitors charge fair rent, create supply and demand and can end a price war. Monopolists, on the other hand, are greedy, charge high rents, restrict supply and can go to prison for price fixing. The players follow different rules, depending on their status, in their quest for big money and real estate."

Maybe it's time for our kids to learn to play by different rules than we were taught, and as we eliminate greed and nurture compassion, we can start living in a pleasant and balanced world, where people no longer take advantage of one another, and then no one has to suffer. Games like Anti-Monopoly can be a good start. What do you think?
