They got jobs, bought Volvo's, and ended up voting for Reagan by the end of the 1970's. There are still a few remnant Rainbow people but not many. My guess more than a few voted for Romney and they are not about to go back to nature. It would not surprise me their kids voted for Obama.

By the way I do plan to move to the farm now that I am retired.
