I did not know that the Amish paid no taxes. Of course they should pay taxes!
Christians (which includes the Amish) live under Biblical law. Jews live under the Torah’s law. This has nothing to do with civil law. Everyone living on American soil is subject to civil law.
The problem is the Muslims want to be in complete charge and promote death to the infidel (he who is not Muslim). Thus if Islam overtakes our Constitution, they will install Sharia law! Islam is, and always has ben, the enemy of other than Islam! They are, no matter what George W. Bush and Rick Perry say, our enemy! (And Mormon walks close beside Islam!!)

“Self-employed Amish do not pay Social Security tax. Those employed by non- Amish employers do pay Social Security tax. The Amish do pay real estate, state and federal income taxes, county taxes, sales tax, etc.
The Amish do not collect Social Security benefits, nor would they collect unemployment or welfare funds. Self sufficiency is the Amish community’s answer to government aid programs. Section 310 of the Medicare section of the Social Security act has a sub-section that permits individuals to apply for exemption from the self-employment tax if he is a member of a religious body that is conscientiously opposed to Social Security benefits but that makes reasonable provision of taking care of their own elderly or dependent members. The Amish have a long history of taking care of their own members. They do not have retirement communities or nursing homes; in most cases, each family takes care of their own, and the Amish community gives assistance as needed. “
