Pretty interesting. All of the residents have free education & health care, nice homes and automobiles plus around $250,000 in the bank. However, they are forbidden to talk to the media, gambling and drugs are strictly outlawed, and every adult is required to work seven days a week (no mention of whether they are granted vacations). Worse still, every cent they make has to stay within the community; anyone who quits their job has to leave without a cent to their name. Wonder if they're covered by some kind of retirement plan, or if they're simply hurled into the street when they get too old to work.
