The Amish also look at how technology effects their community. Just look at the other side of the internet. We can communicate with people across the globe on it but may do that instead of communicating with the people right in the same house/community.

Look at how modern large equipment has effected farmers dealing with each other. They do not need their neighbors to help harvest or much of anything. So the social climate is much different today than it was 75 years ago. They will show up at some event if someone is dying or are very sick but will not think twice about buy/renting ground right out from under someone.

I have lived without electric, running water or central heat. It is not fun and a lot more work just to get by. The women really have it harder with out these things. The everyday work around the home/family is much harder without modern conveniences.

So I am for living simply but with in reason too. An example is we do not have a TV in the house. The last one quit working and I just did not replace it. I have not watched an entire TV show in over 10 years. I do not miss it at all. Instead I waste my time on the internet. LOL
