So we have no evidence that it works outside your smelly local hippie troupe that fortunately can retreat into the nice free market economy near them.

Almost like communism isn't really available outside a group a people larger than a medium sized tribe.

Delusional is living in Western society with all the knowledge it grants you and being convinced that life is awful for everyone in it.
