Libraries - America's Greatest Treasures

Everyone wants to get ahead in life. Luckily our forefathers had the foresight to establish a public library system where anyone has easy access to information to better themselves. Those crazy dudes believed that the only way to secure democracy was through well-educated citizens. So, they went the extra step and declared that public education alone was not enough. Today, libraries have had to adapt to technology and the demands of the public, but they have done so with amazing results considering their very limited budgets.

Unfortunately, as our government slips further down the slope from the awesome founding principles the country was established on, libraries often find their fate hanging in the balance. So show some support for the original GW (the one who had a brain), TJ, and all those other rebels by taking advantage of your local library whenever possible. The Information Age is not strictly about technology after all.
