The Amish Shall Inherit The Earth?

One hundred years ago electric cars outnumbered internal combustion cars. Our ancestors chose to buy cheap Fords instead of electric cars and now we can see the results of having total dependency on a cheap but finite and polluting energy source: Rising costs, supply crisis, and global climate change. Lesson learned, but how many other dependencies do we have now that will leave us totally dependent on corporations in 100 years or less? Can you grow your own food? Will Wal-mart always give us the best price?!? Maybe the self-sufficient Amish are wiser than our tech-industrial revolution!
