Sort of like in the movies "Mad Max" and "Beyond Thunderdome" where there really isn't any sufficient government body, and society is pretty much based on a free-for-all mentality.
And of course libraries have computers don't you know...
Not the best when it comes to on-line learning or earning of a degree however.

How little you know!
I have found it is a waste of time to try and have a discussion with you. You are told over and over FACTS and you keep coming back with the same claims. You refuse to "learn".
if we lose another 20K people from CV it will likely equal the amount of people we'll lose due to the flu this year. People will forget about this and go back to living the same way they did before.
No more handshakes or high fives. Mosh pits will be secretive invitation-only affairs.
A whole generation will grow up with a much larger and more formalized definition of "personal space", and much stronger taboos against invading another's personal space.
1. Free Speech does not mean constantly yelling FIRE in a crowded theater.
2. Universal Health Care for all.
3. Having 25 Big Box stores to buy stuff that fattens you up and pollutes the world is not a feature.
4. Update many aspects of the US Constitution - to reflect a modern nation of 330 million and growing.
5. Lessen the power of the Executive branch.
and on and on
Yes Comrade Craigiri!! We Americans have way too many rights... Who really needs the First, Second, Fourth and Fifth Amendments... Let's just get rid of them and our lives will be far easier.
We can put our full faith in our elected/non-elected governmental officials... Stalin, Mao and Hitler were so misunderstood by the few freedom loving people of the world.

What on Earth can you be talking about?
Fact is I used to work for a company that helped students earn college degrees online. Fact is I know plenty about this subject by way of personal, professional experience. No doubt a good deal more than you do, so rather than just spout off again, why not explain what facts -- exactly -- I don't fully understand?
Otherwise, we can both go on forever like children accusing the other of silly unsubstantiated insults. How about you learn a little more mature approach to explaining yourself? That would be a refreshing change...
Gov't run health care, or anything for that matter, is much WORSE then privately run. We have gov't run health care already with teh VA and we se how POORLY they are run. Gov't housing projects are 'instant slums". The wast fraud abuse is so rampart in th fed, and local gov't, that we could cut 25% across the board with ZERO negative effect if done proberly
Government run health CARE is way different from government run health INSURANCE/PAYMENT systems. So while the VA (care) has its problems, Medicare (insurance) works very well (even if it does pay low for services and high for meds). Pricing can be worked out.

Medicare is pricey for seniors. They pay premiums each month which are deducted from their SS checks, and their copays are 20%. Also, prescriptions aren't covered unless seniors buy a supplemental private insurance policy.
"How does online education work for families that either don't have computers or cannot afford internet services?" Ever hear of a thing called a Library?
" don't have computers" but, Id' bet they have some sort of cable TV service and smart phones for EVERY member of their family.
Bandwidth is important. I know a family where the kids are online all day now while the teachers are overloading them with work. The work-at-home parents can't get online at the same time as the kids because of bandwidth problems.
