      We could do the Venezuela edition: start out (in 1950) with the 4th highest GDP per capital in the world: end starving in the street with massive shortages of food & medicine. 2/x

      We could do the Cuba edition: start (in the 1950s) as the world’s top sugar producer; end up earning $25 per month and risking your life to put your children in rafts seeking freedom. 3/x

      We could do the Russia/USSR edition: the “old timey” playing pieces are all the tech the common people are allowed. When Yeltzin toured a TX supermarket in 1989, he told his comrades that if their people—who faced breadlines—saw the choices in the US “there would be revolution."

      We could do the East Germany edition: you build a wall across your living room; put all the food, technology & prosperity on one side; erect machine guns on the wall; and shoot anybody who tries to get to the West. 5/x

      Or we could do the University edition: you imagine a magic money tree; you give everything free to anybody who wants it; nobody works, studies, or innovates; and everybody gets an A! 6/x

          Here in NZ for the last twenty years we have told our school kids they are brilliant, even when they do no work. Now they can't see the point in doing anything. The teaching profession is currently revising its ideas, too late though.

          Let's do the Western country edition, where our taxes allow us to get healthcare, pay for childcare, have schools that have books from this century, Ted, roads and bridges that won't collapse, a government that cares for US more than corporate donors. Call it WHATEVER you want.
