Move over monopoly

A good sign that no one’s in the mood to invest right now is probably the cartoon of the new recession game that’s doing the rounds on the internet. The board game, like monopoly, has the usual places you land on depending upon the throw of the die. It’s what each place says that makes the game unique — ‘Sales Go Down … Move One Space’, and ‘Layoff More Workers … Move One Space’ are some examples. The Chance/Community Chest cards of this game are also different from those in your standard monopoly. Samplers: ‘Receive Tarp Funds … Try To Buy Corporate Jet … Lose Turn’.
