Agreed. So many articles and discussions these days about how everyone is so lonely and isolated. The article seems to want to imply this system is kind of a bad thing, or at least weird, but I have trouble seeing anything but good things in it.
- Dma54rhs 4y agoThere are so many possibilities to go on vacations like that where everything is pre-arranged and with strangers. From fancy cruise ships to regular travel company arranged stuff.
- dubcanada 4y agoI think the difference is the forced separation. Most people go with friends, family, groups, what not. If you go alone you are the outsider. Forcing everyone to go by themselves opens up true "stranger" vacations.
- tsukikage 4y agoIt’s awesome when you’re single, not so appealing once you start a family.
- dubcanada 4y agoYou no longer want to meet new people once you start a family?

- mantas 4y agoYou don't want to spend vacations vacations with your family? This soviet system in it's heyday was damn close to that. Especially when, for a short time, „7 workdays week“ was implemented where people worked 6 days, but the day off was on different day to keep factories running 7 days. So you may not have a day with your spouse for years :D
