This is why people like them will live the longest when the grid crashes.

Same.

There is a big Amish market about an hour from here. They have shops open daily and do a big open market on the weekends at various times of the year when the produce is producing and the weather is cooperating.

Very nice selection of homemade eats and goods. Good salt of the earth folks.

We have Amish that do barn raising every so often. I like to go watch them. They are very crafty people.

      The Amish are good people,
and put out some great home cooking.... There's a famous Amish Restaurant up in Sarasota in the west coast of the State called Yoders... They have a big Amish community there who are bussed down in the winter months for a little R&R.... You see them playing Shuffleboard and riding their bikes...

When's the last time you saw a group of kids walking to school in the snow...?
Maybe 30 or 40 years ago...?

When was the last time you even saw a child walking to school?  Or, even to a bus stop.  Now, I see parents driving their X-box blobs to bus stops.

I remember walking 1.2 miles every day to the bus stop 50 years ago  in any weather without fail. It was normal then.

Exactly, as did I.  And, if you were late, you had to find some other way to get to school that day, usually riding a bicycle and not getting there until 2nd or 3rd period.

In Jr High our bus picked up our stop first, at 6am, and dropped us off last, at around 4pm... rain or shine.

Riding the big yellow taxi to school was my main motivation for getting a job at 15 so I could buy a car and not have to do that anymore. 🤣

Where I am originally from, we have a lot of Amish

the stores even have covered parking for the horse and buggies 

but what I liked most about the Amish is

they are religious as hell

and mind their own business
