I wanted to read up on that, because I've never heard it before. And apparently her original patent for landlords game ran out in 1921, and her second patent mostly covered the single tax theory playstyle, which didn't get incorporated into monopoly, because the new patent couldn't include things from the old one.

So while they definitely took her game, and mutilated the concept to promote the thing it was advocating against, they didn't necessarily steal it and abuse the fact that she couldn't afford to fight back (At least from what I've seen, please correct me if I'm wrong)

    Well most employers want someone with a permanent residence, good luck with that when you don't have money in the first place.

    Also, plenty of Roma work at my place of employment, so evidently your statement isnt absolute. Not that you'd back up your claim properly, you only wanna spew racist shit, maybe it gets you off.
