Can you show a commune that has lasted 3 generations? So like people move in, they stay and have kids and their kids stay long enough to have kids themselves. So at least about ~50 years?

My impression of all these communes is:

- idealistic people move in

- they realize 90% of the people that moved in are lazy and don't want to work

- the rest of the 10% run the show and the commune either breaks down here or kicks out many people

- kids are born, they grow up and by the time they get to university age they find the whole thing cringy and leave to go have normal lives

- commune ends

Other than some that also degenerate into sexual abuse between members and other weird power games. My impression of these outsider hippie / communist groups is that their failure rate is very high.

The United States, since most of our means of production is owned by the public. That was the point. The United States has the highest equity ownership rate in the world. We all have a stake in this.
