It's also make him learning a very bad boardgames design IMHO....

The original landlord game was design as a satire... it's why it's purposely bad.

As an economical simulation their is a lot of good game:
*Food chain magnate about consumerism
*john company for the link between capitalism and colonialism
*or any 18XX if you like train, and want to do the effort by yourself for some of them (especially the one in usa) to explain the use of slavery to build railroad, thing that the game rules ignore entirely.
