This is why I refuse to support library bond issues. Libraries aren't schools, community centers, or unemployment offices. I'm all in favor of these services, but I want them done by the proper government agencies and not by libraries. If we're going to continue to blur the lines of responsibility, then we should combine public libraries, public schools, community centers, and unemployment offices into one massive government agency.

The issue I have with this is why should others (the taxpayers) have to foot the bill for
this. How is it right to take from one man and give to another for these "extra" services.
