    The US specifically does spend tax money on foreign aid (or at least they used to). I have no problem with that. If you’re struggling to get by, then you should be paying effectively no taxes. If that’s not the case, then we should be fixing that, not cutting funding to things that make the world better.

    As for the fee suggestion, a library does not charge for entry or for every book. There is a “free tier” that everyone can use as long as you return the books on time. You only charge the people making too many requests to make sure the service stays available to everyone.
