Yuk yuk.

As happens with anything communal, there's the 1 or 2 that actually put effort into it, and the rest that just wanna get high & laid and sit around. After a few years of carrying everyone else's weight the workers burn out and leave the bums to themselves and go get jobs at places like Nike or Starbucks. The slobs never work so the place turns into a dump, driving away new members, and eventually they end up losing the place to foreclosure.

Having stayed with and lived close to hippies, I've seen it play out.
