Around these parts, those Amish who do not have access to the convenience of horse & buggy transportation use bicycle. I'm not expert, but from what I gather, the rules or pecking order in typical Amish circles is that "access" is a matter of male dominance, especially older male dominance. This is especially true for the younger Amish folks, young men, young children, particularly the female Amish folks. I'm not talking short jaunts around the block. Regularly I see these young Amish folks using bicycle to power themselves to and from wherever often at several miles per clip one way wherever it is they need to go. By comparison in this instance, I don't believe it is so much a matter of "capability" as it is conditioned behavior. You take a typical 18 year old "outsider" (us 14th Amendment citizens), or even one in their 20's or 30's, male or female, faced with the proposition of a bicycle as their primary means of transportation for wherever is is they may need or want to go - work, market, school, or hangout, that is 5 miles or more round trip, and they are likely to react as though they are somehow being neglected, tortured, mistreated and generally forced to observe an under-privileged way of hardship "life".

The Amish lead a life that shies away from regularly being in the public eye of what they call us "outsiders" (14th Amendment citizens), the white component of which they refer to as us "the English". This is among the reasons why us 14th Amendment outsiders tend to be generally unaware of how these Amish people, who are after all just people like all of us, in their own unique ways, have been (and were long ago) sold out and sold down the river by and through their own sub-system of elders, just like us more common masses have been. As one approaches the upper reaches of the hierarchy (pyramid) that is the modern, sprawling, collective establishment "combine", one will find Amish elders rubbing elbows among the ranks of the more familiar high priests in gaudy garb ... scribes .... authorities .... officials ... princes .... presidents .... bishops .... rabbis .... leaders, et. al.

It naturally is a lot easier for the world at large to notice how us outsider 14th Amendment folks have been sold out and sold down the river by our own systemic brand of elders "elected", and this in turn makes it easier for us outsiders to moan and whine about a few bones tossed to the Amish way of life instead of moaning and whining about the powers behind our own system of puppet high priests. "Oh me, oh my, woe is us, while the Amish are not tethered to the same SS system, the same taxation system, the same public ed system, the same commerce / employment racket as we are, they are seemingly "free" to avail themselves to at least a few of the trinkets our system has, theoretically, on paper "paid for" - privileges our brand of system has been larded with .... like use of public roads.... those damned Amish .. .it's not right!" (so say'eth the Devil's advocate)

This in turn makes it easy, predictably, for all of us little people 14th & Amish alike, regardless of which brand of sub- system we've been raised in, to be distracted , to be bickering and fighting, to be divided over relatively petty issues rather than focusing on where the source cause of these problems lie; the upper reaches of the hierarchy. That is where dwells the (usually) unseen paymasters that all of our high priests, scribes, princes and elders must bow down to no matter which brand of sub-system in the hierarchy they have been put in charge of be it of "english", Amish, This'ish, That'ish, white, black, brown, red, olive, 14th, non, and pretty much all other status of creeds, denominations, factions and races that we the masses of little people have wittingly and not been indoctrinated into.

When the REAL ID act first passed back in 05', I seriously began considering what some alternative options might be, mainly because at that time I had determined that I would not bow down to the requirements of that act. I then talked to a friend who has ready access to street-level authority types - badges, cops, detectives, firemen, masons, judges, state troopers and the like. I inquired and he eventually reported back to me that other than the legal requirement to hang a large, glow-orange triangle on the back, there otherwise is not (presently) any special licensing, permitting, insurance, fees, registrations, nor other "regulatory requirements of the state" in order for a common person to operate a horse and buggy out in / on the public thoroughfare. Granted, it may be hard to imagine this as practical, but it is nice to dream, isn't it? I can almost imagine a day when I clip clop down the road, purposely passing by the Rockefeller corp pumps in favor of pulling in to a fair-exchange stable next door whereupon I instruct the stable hand "filler up lad, with the best "hi-test" barley and oats you got, and, would you please look under the hoof to make sure there are no obvious mechanical problems? Thank you"
