Libraries are the original form of socialism. Get the government to buy you the books you don’t want to pay for.
“Public” libraries were first established by private citizens as gifts to their communities. Some were for membership fee.
“Public libraries exist in most nations of the world and are often considered an essential part of having an educated and literate population.”
Yes you are right that libraries have books that “you don’t want to pay for”, but someone does want to read them. There is probably a road or bridge in your town that you don’t nor every will use, too.
I have purchased thousands of dollars of books that I have donated to my library. I have used many libraries since I was a child and for my children and grandchildren. My first job (at 15) was shelving books (I made a $1.50 per hour). Libraries are key to a well educated populous.
Your hatred for anything paid for by the government for the “common good” reeks from your post. You might want to reconsider by visiting your local library and investigating its history. You may find it was started by a gift Mr. Carnegie. “Scottish-American businessman Andrew Carnegie donated the money for the building of thousands of Carnegie libraries in English-speaking countries in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.” See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carnegie_library
