Are they trying to get rid of our private property?

Ah, communes. Didn’t the generation of peace and love try this already?

Why stop there. Why not have everyone live in dormitories and eat out of a communal pot.
When Algore starts living in a dorm...then I will.

All the Chicken Littles can volunteer to move in together. They will cure the depressed housing market as prime property goes up for sale.

It will be better than Big Brother watching all the enlightened, caring people turn on each other in a matter of days.

Time to get my Earth shoes and tie-dyes out of storage.

They’ve been trying to do away with the concept of private property for awhile now and have succeeded in some locations. They used to call cohousing “communes’ in my day. It’ll be a cold day in hell before I cohouse with the likes of these people. I like my environmental footprint.

“When we (my wife, six children and I) lived in a single-family home in Orangevale, we drove the kids to several play dates every weekend. Since moving into Nevada City cohousing over a year ago, we haven’t had to plan any play dates.”

Shoulda lived in China. He wouldn't have had to worry about play dates.

Collective housing. I live in a condo - but hey, I own MY unit. Here with "cohousing" - the socialists want you to share even the bathrooms! Yikes!

To each according to his needs, which means about ten square feet per person.

By supporting lifestyle and behavior changes that are good for the environment, cohousing integrates social sustainability with environmental sustainability.

Not only will I be living in a cave, but, I will have to share it with anybody that the managers assign there.

At 1455 sq ft, I have too much room. I'm waiting for the arrest warrant for exceeding the allowed ten square feet living unit space.

Translating the socialist gobbledygook: "We want you to live as we say you should live, not live as we live." There, fixed it.

Laugh if you will, but this is the future. People will be packed in tight. As many as two people (plus servants) will be crammed into 28,000 square foot houses. It will become even more crowded when family comes to visit.

Very good! The elite of course is exempt from the cohousing rules they want to impose on the hoi polloi. John Kerry, John Edwards and Algore get to keep their enormous mansions complete with the hired help. None of that cohousing nonsense for them. Its for the Little People.

This goofball must have overlooked the Zero Population Growth memo. Anybody dumb enough to fall for this crap deserves to share a wall with Dr. and Mrs. Moonbeam and their rug rats.

Hey, did you find that pic of John Edwards’ house using Google images? I can’t seem to find it there.
