How are your natural rights being violated in the course of local funding for public libraries?

Where does it stop? At what point has the gov't grown large enough? Wha tlimits are there? According to your argument, I have no rights that cannot be voted away by the majority. Whatever the majority wants, the majority gets.

Heck, we have a document that was suppose to limit the growth of gov't and ensure maximum liberty for the people, yet somehow statists find justification to support Big Government in a document meant to limit it.

I can live without a library, but I don't have a choice in the matter. Do-gooders have banded together and determined that I'm gonna pay for a library whether I want one or not. Just like in my facetious example of you paying for my Hawaiian vacation, once the public figures out that it can vote itself benefits out of the public purse (at someone else's expense), then it just a matter of time before the collapse comes... and we are collapsing under the weight of somethng-for-nothing right now. Don't you see it? The philosophy is bringing down societies all over world. Are you blind?
