The same charge was made up here with our Amish, so I looked into it. Other than licensing and registration for their vehicles, which English horsemen, bicyclists, pedestrians, etc don't pay, I couldn't find any taxes the Amish "don't pay".

They don't contribute to Social Security, but they don't take it either, unlike our welfare bums...which is another thing Amish don't take, or food stamps, WIC, HEAP, etc.
It always mystifies me that some people will single out the Amish as somehow being leaches on society when we have more people on public assistance than actually working full time. It's time to shift you sights to the real problem.
