[Platt] My "point" is get beyond one-liners. Your answers? [Arlo] Answers?
Are the "poor" better or worse off because of public libraries? Would the "poor" be better off if we shut down all the public libraries and converted them to Barnes and Nobles? Let's go back to the fabled pre-socialist era of the early 20th century. Give me some measures you would use to show me how the "poor" were better off then? Better income? Better health care? Better education? Contrast the workers in the Pullman camps to the factory workers at GM today. Tell me in what ways the Pullman laborers were "better off"? Since we favor the "free market", do you think people would be better off with a privatized police force than a socialized one? Why? Why is a socialized police force better than a private one?
