Unfortunately, you may be correct. I've seen it happen in Southwestern Wisconsin where Amish farmers are able to make a living on farms that had previously failed. Some of the locals feel that the Amish must be ripping them off since they are successful on land that others couldn't live off of.

This has happened in a big way in Paraquay where there are many successful Amish and Mennonite dairy farmers. The government is limiting their expansion and sales.
