So I noticed this page four type story...over this commercial company....out of southern California, wanting to deliver a brand new idea.
The concept here is that you'd build this big 'dorm' facility for adults, which would be charging rent of a much lesser scale.
How big of a dorm? Well....they are suggesting a hundred people could be housed in this dorm of building, but then they kinda suggest that they all need a particular view of such living (a 'mindset').
The lack of privacy? In most of the scenarios that I've seen over the past year, with various groups trying this concept....there are 'pods' in each warehouse type situation where your bed resides, and the rest of the area is simply open space with couches, chairs, and dining tables.
I have this opinion over 'group-live' (similar to 'group-think), in that you could make this work as long as all members were marginal drinkers (never getting drunk), non-druggies, and without any paranoid schizophrenic behavior. They'd also have to be like-minded on politics, sports, agenda items, and desire to be around groups of people for the majority of their 'life-plan'.
Trying to make this work in the military, with barracks? I always noted continual disagreements and personality conflicts, and the Air Force eventually went to the simple plan of one-guy per room.....to avoid dealing with this constant bickering.
Long-term success with this idea? Maybe in the area of San Francisco and LA....you might be able to put up five to ten of these structures in each city, and find people who are desperate to live in a $300 a month group situation for a year or two.....to get around the high cost of living in urbanized California. Guys and gals will do 'stupid' things....when faced with unbearable costs.
The odds that you could run such an operation with 40 anti-Trump folks and 20-pro-Trump folks in the warehouse? Virtually zero.
Workable in other states? I have my doubts. If you arrived in Huntsville, Alabama and tried to interest folks in this....the response would almost laughed upon. For what you'd charge for a 'spot'.....the guy would respond that acquiring an RV and parking it in a trailer park.....would offer more privacy and be almost the same cost factor.
So I'll predict this comes around and survives for a couple of years, until some episode occurs with a major brawl, and some idiot suing his fellow occupants for insults or assault-action.
