Diskussion:The Landlord’s Game

Falscher Satz

Falsch

„Ich hoffe, dass Männer und Frauen sehr schnell begreifen, dass ihre Armut daher kommt, dass Carnegie und Rockefeller mehr Geld haben, als sie ausgeben können.“[1] ist nicht richtig.

Richtig

„Ich hoffe, dass Männer und Frauen sehr schnell begreifen, dass ihre Armut daher kommt, dass Carnegie und Rockefeller alles Geld der Erde besitzen, so dass für das Volk nichts mehr übrig bleibt“[1] --78.49.182.85 10:01, 24. Jul. 2017 (CEST)

Glaub ich nicht: „In a short time, I hope a very short time, men and women will discover that they are poor because Carnegie and Rockefeller, maybe, have more than they know what to do with.“ Zitiert nach Urban Planning Games and Simulations: From Board Games to Artificial Environments von Ric Stephens, S. 253. -Reflective1333 (Diskussion) 10:35, 25.

Heute habe ich auf Facebook folgenden Text gefunden. https://www.facebook.com/filmsforaction/

"Monopoly wasn't invented by the Parker Brothers, nor the man they gave it credit for. In 1904, Monopoly was originally called The Landlord's Game, and was invented by a radical woman. Elizabeth Magie's original game had not one, but two sets of rules to choose from.

One was called "Prosperity", where every player won money anytime another gained a property. And the game was won by everyone playing only when the person with the least doubled their resources. A game of collaboration and social good.

The second set of rules was called "Monopoly", where players succeeded by taking properties and rent from those with less luck rolling the dice. The winner was the person who used their power to eliminate everyone else.

Magie's mission was to teach us how different we feel when playing Prosperity vs Monopoly, hoping that it would one day change national policies.

When the Parker Bros adopted the game, they erased Magie, they erased the "Prosperity" rules and celebrated "Monopoly". This is why very few games of Monopoly end in better friendships! Some even end friendships! What they couldn't erase was Magie's lesson.
