Spartacus....I didn't watch the video yet, but I live in Amish country and there are lots of things they buy that would surprise you! I see them at walmart all the time. The mennonites especially. They post ads on craigslist. They always post a phone number and when you call, its like a main number for the whole community. They always call back and they do great work! Their lumberyards are amazing! They do have electric.....but they use a generator.
I grew up in Amish country and farmed next to and with. Had them build barns and the like. Have even given a few rides when they wanted to go to a sale out of state. In regard to the video, it was obvious to me that it was a professional production aimed at giving Wal*Mart a bad name. It just struck me as funny that they would involve the Amish in their scheme when it was apparent to me that they probably were not all that familiar with the business that the Amish conduct. They also emphasized the patriotic aspects of the Mom & Pops being put out of business.
