The Missing 120 Years: What Lizzie Magie Taught Us — and Why We Must Finish Her Work


For 120 years, America has lived with only half the story.

In 1904, Lizzie Magie designed The Landlord’s Game to teach Henry George’s vision of shared prosperity, ethical wealth, and perpetual circulation — a system meant to prevent the poverty cycles we still struggle with today. But when Monopoly commercialized only the “winner-take-all” version, Magie’s original lesson disappeared.

This webinar uncovers what was lost — and how those ideas can still transform the financial well-being of ordinary Americans.

Drawing from her upcoming book, Independent Economics: The People’s Guide to Moral Wealth and Perpetual Prosperity, Honey B. Blues will connect Magie’s forgotten Prosperity rules to a modern, non-speculative framework based on moral wealth, community savings, and perpetual reinvestment. She’ll explore how simple tools, such as CD ladders and Treasury notes, can help rebuild stability without market risk or predatory debt.

Speaker bio: Honey B. Blues is an independent economic researcher and the author of the upcoming book IndependentEconomics: The People’s Guide to Moral Wealth and Perpetual Prosperity. Her work focuses on rediscovering forgotteneconomic ideas— especially the lost vision of Lizzie Magie — and translating them into practical, non-speculative savings systems for ordinary Americans. Blues’ research centers on moral wealth, community resilience, and perpetually circulating financial models that reduce dependence on unstable markets.
