If You Build It, They Will Commune
Look, say what you will about Mao's Communists: history will judge them harshly, Cultural Revolution allegedly very bad, desultory access to coffee, etc. But they built a basketball court or two in the courtyard of the Forbidden City (unlike CoCoPa, the Commision for Conciliation and Peace, which built its negotiating bunker for 1995 talks with the Zaps directly on the only court in San Andres Larrainzar. That sucked.)
