Ironically the monopoly economy would probably function better under conditions of hyperinflation.

This would actually make for a great sketch in the context of the freedom that the game give the players to make deals with each other. I'm imagining an auth-right banker organizing the game with 7 other people. It starts off pretty normally, but the 7 all construct deals to not charge each other rent until the banker either joins the deal or goes bankrupt. Then the group forms a new government with new rules, a direct democracy, independent judicial, and minimal executive, collectivizes real estate, abolishes money, etc. The joke is watching the banker anxiously react to the developments as they occur while the 7 are focused on cooperating, socializing and just having a good time.
