  Wtf? Why would "co-housing" be deemed socialist? Is sharing an appartment with roommates deemed socialist in the US? Is couchsurfing?

  We have a lot of friends / acquaintances in their 60s and 70s, especially women, who live alone. We've surmised they should all start a meal club. As in, none of them like to cook for one, but if they each took one night per week to cook for the "team" it would be easier on all of them. Co-living and/or support networks make a lot of sense for various demographics.

  >Denmark's got a great solution What's the solution? I skimmed the article and I'm left confused as to what exactly "co-housing" entails. Is it just a college dorm situation where multiple people live in one building with separate rooms and shared common areas? >Too bad such a thing would be deemed "socialist" in the US. I hate statements like these with a vengeance because: 1. it instills a defeatist attitude that we will never be able to get the change we want because of opponents 2. it asserts without evidence that the opponents are cartoonishly evil/ignorant
