True or False

Monopoly was created to teach the benefits of capitalism.

False. The board game Monopoly was originally created in 1903 by Elizabeth Magie as "The Landlord's Game." Its purpose was to illustrate the negative effects of land speculation and monopolies, and to advocate for a tax reform based on Georgism (simple taxation of land value). The game was therefore initially a critique of capitalism, not a celebration of it.
