OPTIONAL RULES AND IDEAS

THE BUMP RULE
Players may decide that when a player lands on a block on the Able-Bodied Welfare Recipient's Promenade or in the Working Person's Rut already occupied by another player, that player is bumped forward to the nearest "Get a Job" or "Go on Welfare" block respectively.

PLAYERS TAKING BETS ON THE HORSES AND DAILY LOTTERY
Players with enough money may elect to take the race track or daily lottery bets of other players. In that case, the player taking the bets follows the same procedure as would apply if the Custodian of the Taxpayers' Hard-Earned Dollars were taking bets.

ADDING MORE REALISM
Two players may decide to take this great welfare game to the waiting room of their local welfare office and invite two real-life able-bodied welfare recipients to join them in the game while they are waiting for their food stamps, medical cards, welfare check, and other benefits.
