Amid the raging financial crisis, many in the US are left doubting the wisdom behind the American way of life. And in one enclave in the US state of Virginia, an increasing number of people are dropping the dollar and picking up a hammer and a sickle. RTs Priya Sridhar reports from a commune that is adopting a revolutionary way of life.

  • Karl MArx would actually be proud of this more than Stalin

  • @hellaflush707 equal economic status also means social immobility, therefore eliminating one of the main stimulus for entrepreneurship.

  • Only in capatalist America can communism function lol

  • Communism is for SCHNOOBS but I guess it's their right to be schnoobs. If they want to live in communes then so be it. Crazy wackos are best away from free society.

  • This commune uses coertion too. THEY THREAT to toss you out if you don't work.

    F A I L

    I don't know about you but I don't want anybody over my shoulder yeling: Dig faster or else I will throw you out from MY paradise. Ops. I ment ours paradise :D :D:D :D:D :DD :D

  • In a communist state, they wouldn't be allowed to live that way. Somebody has to own/pay taxes on that land and invite others to participate. It is in effect a free enterprise. They work full time to generate income to support their way of life. There's a difference between a "commune" and Communism. Communism is imposed by the state on EVERYBODY, by force, no freedom of expression. Here, anyone with land, money, ingenuity, and a few friends can have a go at it. Getting there's the hard part.

  • @XxLIVRAxX stimulus... I hate humanity Throughout all 200,000 years of humanity's history, there has never been anything but death and suffering. The bad guys win. Cheaters always prosper. Hate and fear always supersede love and happiness.

    Humans are what we are in Earth's ecosystem not because we were the most prosperous, or the most enlightened, or the most joyous. We are what we are because we brutally murdered everything else. Is not somethign I would take pride of.

  • @XxLIVRAxX its ok its not capitalism 

  • Original idea behind Communism is really wrong, as you know! watch?v=w5qQsXUZh0I
