#3 A program on the Hutterites and their take on communism was informative. They believe that if the community has more than about 200 people it can no longer maintain their "religious communal ownership" system and needs to split off a new "daughter colony".

So essentially, we have a group performing a long-term social experiment and the result is that: "Communism does not work for large groups. Period."
