Ì have an idea to buy some land in France with other people and start making something like Auroville in India. I have had a recent good idea on how to generate money for land taxes and externally bought food. People who want to live there would have to pay an initial lump sum of 30k. For that they will own a very small living quarters and have to take up a job within the community. Selection of people who live there will be very strict initially as will need the correct people to set the foundans. How popular would you say this would be?

You can pay me a deposit now if you want tony. I take credit card. Communism has a leader though. This will not. Just free willed people.

Honeydip, only days ago you were asking 'who owns mountains?', so personally I would be rather wary of any scheme you set up that asked me for £30,000 up front. You appear to be somewhat naive to me. Either that, or you're winding people up.

Sorry I am not winding people up I am just exploring my thoughts with the help of the people on this site which is rather helpful to be honest.

All residents have to take up a job - child labour then !

And work 'til you drop dead. No, not for me I'm afraid.

You'll be hard pressed to find any doctor willing to live without pay, you'll need a dentist too. Seems a bit 6th form common room dabbling in Communism to me.

Can disabled people join, or do they not fit in your criteria of 'correct people'?
