In an ideal world: Safe. In our existing world: Uncomfortable. During my high school years -- still high Anti-Communism years -- a nun explained that the word Communisim came from the same root word as Community, and that their convent shared some attributes that might be considered communistic. That is, in their convent it was "From each, according to her abilities. To each, according to her needs". That sounds good, but seems to only work with like-minded people who voluntarily subscribe to that philosophy. And, though that particular convent is now about 150 years old, history has many cases where other communes dissolved over just a few decades.
