I say this all the time! I use it to try to discredit conservatives when they make up reasons why we can’t have good things. Like, look, you love the library, and you know conservatives would make up all sorts of reasons why it couldn’t ever work. When they’re going on about how free buses (or whatever) couldn’t work, it’s the same
There could be some poor inner-city child that studies at libraries to get away from their home life and ends up joining the MIC or becoming an investment banker.
Benjamin Franklin was a lover of life, and he seemed to think that books helped to love life…I honestly can’t believe he was so influential as to create one of the finest institutions on the planet. Remember, he hung out with slavers…
the single most important reason for libraries to be freely accessible…maybe why certain folks want them to go away
If libraries didn’t already exist, to people in the USA they’d sound like some kind of socialist fever dream.
A place where anybody can go to borrow media for free? Paid with my tax dollars?

Sure, an American invented libraries, totally /s
