Where do you see socialism? Cooperative housing is owned by the residents, not the government. I'd much rather do that than live in an expensive assisted living facility. Example:
http://mainecohousing.org/ The thing about 100% independence is that it runs out someday for most people: you get old, your income dwindles, your spouse dies, your children move away, you get sick. Then what? Cohousing is an alternative for some people. I'd like to see more of it in New Hampshire.
