Students will take my classroom economy and build a mafia, successfully control at least half of the class’s fake money with predatory loans and interest rates, then expect ME to deal with it when someone steals from them
Like little homies I am so sorry to tell you this because I am so sorry it’s true but I am the government in this situation. The Man, if you will. You make a mafia, you deal with running it
Anyway, they decided to threaten thieves with breaking their knee caps and I’m helping them build a spreadsheet to keep track of their finances
They have not, however, relocated the jankass box made out of roughly hacked apart pieces of cardboard glued together that’s always sitting in the middle of the class library and bursting with their dirty fake money nor seem to have any intention to make ‘the mafia’ more secure
#jackshit#jacksclass#i have a kid who’s not in the mafia come to discuss inflation the mafia will cause and the economic implications of the mafia keeping their#cash flow outside of the governments hands because then the gov either has to print more money thus devaluing the money#or raise prices to insane levels#or both#meanwhile this morning my teammates were just telling our admin how they’re struggling to fund their seperate class economy because they#need to buy takis etc etc and I laughed and told them how since my initial stock-up in august I only needed to spend money on it again#yesterday and that was to print more fucking fake money XD#the real joy of class economies is playing pretend with it and once I figured that out it’s been more effective#so despite my little genius’s insistence that my prices will have to skyrocket I will be charging the same outrageous prices for shit as#i have all year and they can all just keep playing loan shark#absolutely delighted I got buy in on the spreadsheet tho#spreadsheets are so fun
