Notes -
Yes but who's really 'full Amish'? Many Amish (and similar communities like Hutterites) won't forgo obvious modern medical treatment, they won't starve themselves if a harvest fails to yield, and they share all of the other benefits of living in a modern society, like a police force etc. Of course some are more adherent to the lifestyle than others, but when crisis strikes all bets are off...
More power to them of course, but they're enjoying the benefits of the wider organized society.
