Welfare

Four wealthy friends in evening wear sit in a mansion drawing room until one proposes a new board game called Welfare, billed as the fun twist on Monopoly. They pick tokens that mock poverty, collect food stamps, land on each other's properties and cheerfully bankrupt each other while congratulating themselves on being sophisticated about it. Each cruel punchline is delivered with polite delight, and the sketch closes on a mock commercial for the game, credited to a fictional council of conservative citizens, whose other products have equally offensive names.
