Newt Gingrich Attacks Monopoly Economy!

"You've got these kids starting off in places like Mediterranean and Baltic. They don't have jobs, nobody they know has jobs. And here comes the government giving them $200 just for passing 'Go'. They aren't the ones paying Luxury Tax, but they keep complaining about not getting Free Parking. No matter how many times you read them the official rules - no, you don't get paid for landing on Free Parking - they shout, 'Well we don't play that way!' They'll never play that way, and aren't they the first ones to pass the dice hoping you don't notice they are on your property and not paying rent."
