Worse. People a few centuries ago had their communities set up for their level of technology, so they were prepared for that way of life. Modern people are not prepared.
Our infrastructure and communities aren't designed for primitive living. People living on family-run farms and ranches might be OK but that's a small percentage of the American population. The Amish people might do OK.
For example: Two hundred years ago people didn't live in high-rise apartments that require elevators and air conditioning. They didn't build their homes any taller than they could climb the stairs. What would people in NYC, Chicago, Atlanta, Miami, and LA do?
Thanks for info.
Would you survive to be Amish person? If so then wouldn't use Mac or cell phone, just like you do in 1800's.
No way! I would rather live in this present day than stuck in the 1800's style generation.
Ugh, same here...I have seen the Amish people in my
community in New York, and believe me, i would never
trade my life with theirs,...whew!
We drove thru their community and it was unreal,
it is like going thru time warp! but that is their way
of life and i respect that. They are very peaceful
and kind people.

They do not allow you to wear your hearing aids in their community. They also control women's rights.
