And what if, as has been mentioned previously, someone is unable to work and can not make the trip to any physical library? How are they supposed to obtain their reading materials?

In the same manner they obtain their groceries?

Once again, several lifetimes worth of reading is available in the public domain. Even

Perhaps downloading does = copying

Downloading, as you mean it, is definitely copying. After all, you're not removing the material from the source and then revoking access after you're done with it ala e-libraries.
I'd still like to know why your book on Amazon isn't priced at $0.00. Hypocritical much?
