276. We're experiencing similar problems with our area public libraries, many of which closed
during the summer. DURING THE SUMMER! The summertime is the time that my parents had my brother and I do most of our reading. And now the kids cannot read during the summer because the public libraries are closed?
Anyway, this is just further evidence of how this country has devalued intellectual curiosity and celebrates utter stupidity. Being dumb has become a badge of honor. Don't believe me, turn on Faux News. You get paid by being pretty, pleasant and just plain dumb. You don't get anywhere being smart and thoughtful.
