Get your facts straight. The US has a library that from day 1 has been
citizen supported. Every state (that I am aware of) has a state library that
is funded by tax payers. Furthermore, Texas & Lousiana have had localy
supported libraries and schools before they were even states.

Jim,
I suggest you get your facts straight.
LOC is for the Congress. Have you tried getting in and doing your own private
research? It's not piece of cake.
Every state has a public library NOW, just like every state has a welfare
office. However I have plenty of evidence that libraries in New York were
much better when there were many private ones who charged patrons for use
- which was the case about 100 years ago.
