thanks to budget cuts, public libraries have reduced hours, reduced staff, reduced the number of new releases, reduced and/or eliminated book discussions, reduced/eliminated literacy programs. we may have started a path where this generation will be less educated than the previous generation, all because it costs too much.

Find out which of your favorite books your library doesnât have and buy them. Then donate them to the library. Youâd be surprised how good it makes you feelâŠ.Itâs a gift that lasts a very long timeâŠ.

No comments yet on the mystery of a kid that age with books? Or on the âeducation expertsâ in public schools saying that as long as a kid has an iPad, he donât need no stinkinâ library.

Here in Ypsilanti, Michigan weâve a library that continues to grow. 85% of families in the township have a library card. Great collection of books plus thru cooperative lending with other libraries we have a great facility. Love the library!

Yep! Letâs free up the entire military budget and fire all of them! That would free up Trillions!! Constitution certainly doesnât require a military.
As for libraries, my local one is closed most of the time. Itâs never opened after work for me and itâs not open on the weekends. I can see how that could be seen as a great value, but to me, itâs useless.
Schools a value? 70% of my property tax is for the schools, and my property tax is insane. Iâve never used any of the schools here either. AND if I decide to have kids and give them a REAL education, I have to pay for it twice! Thatâs value?
Oh, what the heck lemme go through the rest of the list from RRR. Sunshine cost my mom her life Melanoma. Fresh air and water? Where? It doesnât exist any more. If you want it, you pay for it. Every single lake in my state has mercury poisoning. Even the well water is questionable in many areas.
The world is out to kill us as invaders. There are no values.

My wife taught in the Birmingham, Alabama school system. She would fail a couple of her students expecting them to be in the same grade the next year. Over the summer the principle changed the grades so the kids were promoted to the 5th grade. The blacks college graduates in Alabama werenât required to take the teachers exam to teach because it was deemed âracistâ by their attorneys. Public education run by the liberals is working just great for our future generations. Joe McCarthy was right.

Not a smart comment on your part. The modern public library was started by the men who wrote the Constitution. SoâŠ

How about a little less pissing and moaning about âlibtard thisâ and âconservaturd thatâ and doing something constructive for a change? Or is that something that never occurs to all those a$$hats out there (and you know who you are)?

I thought about replying to this, and decided it was pointless to even start. Compared to inflammatory uninformed drivel such as this, Bigpuma is a joy to read.
