'makes government fund them more' .. 'rent cds and games and movies'
(So, they're socialist BS that destroyed legit rental businesses with taxpayer money.)
Ah yes! It was libraries that killed my good ol’ hometown Blockbuster Video. It certainly could not have been market forces reacting to technological innovation to birth a multitude of subscription rental businesses available through increasingly faster internet connections.
Curse you libraries! You killed all the bookstores. And record shops too! Is there no end to your socialist devilry‽ Everyday I 🙏 thank the gods 🙏 that we haven’t socialized education. Such a thing would destroy the livelihoods of the great tutors who personally taught each and every one of us our letters and numbers.
I refuse to believe that this is not a really weak troll.
Honestly that might describe their whole account.
I hope so, but it's such a lame one. Just incoherent. Maybe someone prompted an AI to post troll comments, and it's just doin' its best.
Those rental businesses went out of business well before libraries were generally offering non-book media rentals...
