A fun fact about Monopoly is it was originally invented by a woman as a game about the evils of landlords and bloodthirsty capitalism. Her idea was stolen by a dude who got ludicrously rich by selling it to the Parker Brothers and taking credit for the idea

She didn't know about the other game even existing, it only became obvious what happened *after* the contract was signed, they told her her game "failed" on store shelves (because they barely printed any) and they moved on to the Monopoly deal

She would've had to start a new process of raising more money to hire new lawyers to actively sue them and make a stink about it, and she didn't have the resources to do that - very few individuals do This kind of thing happens all the time
