Progressive Utopias: Why Communes Collapse (And How Capitalism Saves Them)
Progressive Utopias: Why Communes Collapse (And How Capitalism Saves Them)
Socialists like New York City’s new mayor push the “warmth” of collectivism. Activists chant about “sharing the prosperity.” But every time they build their model of a socialist utopia, a commune, they fail! ——— To make sure you receive the weekly video from Stossel TV, sign up here: https://www.johnstossel.com/#subscribe-form ——— Socialist commune New Harmony, Indiana collapsed. It was recently revitalized by a nepo baby’s oil money. “There’s not enough” said the bookkeeper for The Farm, a commune formed in the ‘70s. It too only survived because they abandoned socialism and allowed residents to own things. The Oneida community was a free-love socialist commune saved by selling expensive silverware. The Amana Colonies were on the brink of failure, until they reformed into a company, selling appliances. Communes abolish private property, promise equity, and then collapse. I wish my new mayor understood that. “Sharing” sounds nice, but it encourages some people to not try very hard. Yet someone has to pay the bills. In this video: socialist communes that faced failure, and were saved by capitalism.
