Big business tycoon and philanthropist was caught slipping $50 bills into his opponents’ banks. For the betterment of society? To keep the game going? Is there a difference? After rolling doubles every other turn, a sense of responsibility has accompanied his good luck.
With new home and hotel construction underway, he is still bound to crush his competitors. Meanwhile, it’s the poorest of us who get stuck with the luxury tax again and again. Sad irony, indeed. Unless we get a free ride past go to collect $200, it’s all thanks and gratitude for the charity this time around the block.
Wow, is this a monopoly play by play or commentary on big business? Did the NPR broadcast on CEOs yesterday influence this post? Whatever the inspiration, you have this reader guessing and connecting.
