You read the title right. I’ve often talked about how Twin Oaks offers public/private options. You can take something out of ‘commie clothes’ and make it yours if you want to. Of course, then you have to wash it yourself.
Apparently this also applies to food and when goodies are dumpstered and there isn’t enough to go around, privatization can be a problem. Jules from Twin Oaks published this post on our Facebook feed.



This post got quite a few comments–ranging from serious questions to humorous responses.



You can live in a commune, but folks were still raised in a capitalist culture, and sometimes a scarcity mentality prevails.
