It’s a common misconception that Monopoly is a hymn to capitalism.
Actually, it’s a reimplantation of the Landlord’s Game, which was designed to demonstrate the mechanics of wealth accumulation and its nasty consequences when almost everybody end in poverty.

Monopoly can actually be a pretty quick game if you play by the rules. Which literally nobody does.
