Saw this circulating on the facebooks - heard that this money won't be used for payroll, but would it free up money to be used on payroll? I'd like to think that donating a million (since it's matched) would save a couple jobs.

this is a total waste of money and effort.

anyone who can read can afford books. if you are too poor to afford books, then you can't even read them in the first place.

the entire concept of a library is dumb. if you want a book get a job and buy one.

you're right, though. i really do think we should make all the books in the world availible to people for free.

the entire concept of paying for a book is dumb. if you want a book you should just be able to go someplace and get one for free.
