text: In a group, you need everyone working toward the same goal.  So if you introduce an element that hinders the effectiveness of the group to function ... that element is to the detriment of the whole.  That's what hippies were and are.\n\nAt least in the 60s the hippies wanted to start their own communal societies.  We could handle that, they were not such a hindrance to the mainstream society.  But today's hippies are far worse.  Now they want to stay within our mainstream society, enjoy the benefits of the group, but refuse to do anything productive themselves.
