The Hutterites - Hutterite Colony - Driven to Sustain
Those who know Hutterites know that they are very traditional people. It is, therefore, no surprise that they have firm political beliefs and very conservative views about the world around them. Most Hutterites do have a source of outside news, typically the local paper. Its how the colony interprets the news that is especially interesting. Most of the views of the Hutterites Ive spoke with about global issues are direct translations from the newspapers. The opinions of Obama were suspected terrorist; climate change doesnt exist because President Bush discredited humans involvement over 8 years ago. Translations like these happen frequently in the colonies, but very seldom does this source of global information affect their daily routine. Although thats unless a Hutterite catches an article on becoming more resource efficient in their lives and a Hutterites attention will be caught. You see, Hutterites are hardcore conservative in a lot of ways than just politically. They are by far the most efficient group of people I have ever witnessed. Its not because Hutterites are trying to save the world from climate change but because they put higher value in resources than the average person. Something I believe, western culture can learn from this amazing society.
