Those already have a name - company town.
They failed the last time they were tried and will fail again.
It’s more insidious than that:

America is truly going back to its roots. American towns, ethnic cleansing of native populations, all that's missing is chattel slavery (of course we still got that modern slavery). This crumbling empire deserves to collapse, and collapse quickly
But before they failed, they stole a ton of labor/profit from the residents.
Right. They worked very well for the companies!
I mean, they can only steal so much / so quickly WITHOUT building them...
They didn't just fail on their own. They were very successful until the labor movement decided to meet violence with violence.
Now that's a tradition I wouldn't mind we go back to, seems like the only way we ever got labor protections in this country
Ask Appalachia about company towns. Folks here at least ought to know better.
And what do you get? Another day older and deeper in debt...
I'm always torn between this version and the Johnny Cash one.
