Let's junk libraries and buy everyone a kindle.
Says Tim Worstall of Forbes: "More titles, easier access and quite possibly a saving of public funds. Why wouldn’t we simply junk the physical libraries and purchase an Amazon Kindle Unlimited subscription for the entire country?"What an idea! What a deep thinker! It's pure dollars and sense!

Goober. Yes. I think I will use that word more often. It's a good word. And yes, he is. It's crazy thinking. I think it comes from being from a background of privilege, but thinking you got all that money and opportunities because you deserve them and work hard. They can't imagine someone working hard but still getting few opportunities or little money. Very bubble-headed.
