Your distain of "those hippies" comes through loud and clear....
You didn't really read the entire article, did you? It talks about the
sustainability of these communities, how they've become multi-generational,
branched out into the greater community, and added societal elements to
themselves.
BTW, I personally know of "back-to-the-land" type hippies of more independent
makeup who moved into the outback of my home state (WV) and are still there,
doing stuff like raising sheep and producing high quality wool that sells all
over the world. Capitalism at its best, practiced by old flower children!

Subject: [internetworkers] proof against Communism
So, not only did the Soviet brand of communism fail utterly, but so did
the kind espoused by all those hippies who moved out to the country 30
years ago.

(Yeah, it's ABC news, but it's kind of cool that mainstream media gives
any sort of recognition to these intentional communities. If you've got
any interest in this subject, check out the article.)
