while the Amish are “exempt” from mandatory healthcare in the WND article this bill is exempting farms

the Amish are looking better and better to me.
maybe i should go Amish and get a farm up here in Vermont

I’ll bet they want the rural folks to eventually go away except for a few “curiousities” they can visit liek the amish, kinda like going to the zoo for a big city lib.

The Amish are all about their faith in God and the primacy of the Gospels.

However there are a few things that the Amish are about that non-believers can take away, their commitmet to their group, their belief that they are responsible for the members of the group and that they self-insure as a group by providing on site help and collecting monies in emergencies.

They also are not afraid to die. For they see this life as a prequel to their real life which is with God. So the Amish are not typically using ICU services on their older people to extend life.
