telegantmess:odinsblog:Libraries are one of the few remaining public goods that haven’t been completely privatized and profitized. Libraries are virtually free to the public, regardless of race, class, gender, religion or sexual orientation. And it needs to stay that way. Capitalists need to keep their dirty, grubby little HANDS OFF libraries. Not to mention that libraries aren’t exactly a huge drain on the taxpayers. I’m willing to bet that the city I grew up in spends more in a year on settling claims against the police department than it does in at least 5 years on libraries. -- source link
