Why Jamestown was important.

As you probably know, Jamestown was the first permanent English settlement in America.  The year was 1607.

What you may not know is that Jamestown was settled by about 9000 people who were "sponsored" by wealthy English businessmen.  The terms of their deal were:

There would be no private property.
They would live in a commune and share the duties and the resources.
There would be no "dog eat dog" mentality.
The leader would give the assignments.

So what happened to them? 

Out of the 9000 settlers only about 1000 survived the rules of the deal.

The same English businessmen sponsored the Pilgrims of the Plymouth Colony with the same rules.  The only difference was that these folks were religious so surely the rules would work here, right?

Their leader William Bradford too meticulous notes so we have far more information about Plymouth than we do about Jamestown.  The rules didn't work any better with religious folks than it did at Jamestown.  They nearly starved to death as well. Bradford tells us that those with the most excuses at work time came with the biggest basket at harvest time.  No work was getting done.

Bradford said that they were trying to get AWAY from tyranny but that the people were making him a TYRANT.

Anyone know what happened next?
