The Welfare Game
nbsp;http://www.welfaregame.com/
I tried to look through older posts to see if this was already put up, but I guess not.
I know this is a spoof, but it brings together what we talk about in class. I love the horoscopes. =]

I think this is so funny and at the same time it pin pointed everything that we talked about in class. I believe it to be an eye opener about how people really view welfare and how they have played with the government to get money from welfare.

I would have never thought a game like this ever existed but it does pin point our whole class topic. The funny part is that the game has been banned from what the website is telling us. This game basically talks about welfare and wish we could have actually seen the game board. This could be a perfect game to play in class.

I actually own the game. I recently bought it from a second hand store. Its brand new but with wear on the box. It’s pretty cool to see it might just be a collectible.
