I live by a large libarary. There are 3 union staffers for every patron, partly to monitor for pedophiles. My yearly property taxes are 4% of property value and rising twice the rate of inflation. I love books but no thanks.

I love books but no thanks. What real value do we get from public, tax-supported libraries? IMHO, I think the lending of books would be better performed by the private sector instead of the current model of soft socialism.

Our library is usually buzzing with users, many more than the staff. Lots there for computer use, job search, and movies as well as books.
