The following applies to libraries. If you can get a haircut, you should be able to borrow a book.
“The first places open for regular business should be government buildings and offices. Starting in DC.
If the White House isn’t doing public tours then the rest of the country is not ready to open.
If your state’s capital building is not open to the public then the rest of your state is not ready to open.
If your governor is not out shaking hands and kissing babies then it’s too soon for the rest of us.
If your city’s court house and mayor’s office aren’t open for regular business then your city is not ready.
If the governing body and lawmakers aren’t ready to take those risks then what does that tell you?”
The government has the authority to pretty much implement any regulation it wants without suffering harm to itself. That is no proof of anything except government has little value to the people who pay for it.
“If the governing body and lawmakers aren’t ready to take those risks then what does that tell you?”
Tells me that they’re brown-nosing sellouts, assuming you’re talking about covid-19.
I miss our libraries very much, and always support them by paying my exorbitant late fees without fail, several times per year. Wonder if they’ve got everybody’s total fees payed, I’m probably around $40 per year. Worth every penny.
