What about a Progressive Library?
Advertisements [?]
It could be an independent organization that provides books to people who either can't afford them or can't access them at their local library. The library wouldn't be a physical one, rather an online database of people offering books for people to read and people looking for books. The organization would make sure that the users of the system aren't stealing books and that there are enough books in circulation. Think about it...

Thousands of Americans could read great titles like

+Fiasco
+State of Denial
+Don't think of an Elephant
+1984
+Bushwhacked
+Rogue Nation
+Amred Madhouse/The Best Democracy Money Can BUy
+Progressive Logic
+The Courage of Our Convictions
+It Can't Happen here
etc etc etc

currently I can't find some of these titles at my local library and I really don't want to buy all of them. thoughts?
