Next time I play Monopoly as the banker I’m just gonna print money and collapse the economy.

    Ironically the monopoly economy would probably function better under conditions of hyperinflation.

    This would actually make for a great sketch in the context of the freedom that the game give the players to make deals with each other. I'm imagining an auth-right banker organizing the game with 7 other people. It starts off pretty normally, but the 7 all construct deals to not charge each other rent until the banker either joins the deal or goes bankrupt. Then the group forms a new government with new rules, a direct democracy, independent judicial, and minimal executive, collectivizes real estate, abolishes money, etc. The joke is watching the banker anxiously react to the developments as they occur while the 7 are focused on cooperating, socializing and just having a good time.

    Monopoly is such a shitty game. I hate it.
