    I don’t think you can blame them for this. How many resources do you use without voluntarily paying extra above your legal requirements? Do you donate every time you go to free libraries, museums, parks, cathedrals, etc? I certainly don’t and I don’t think that makes me “the parasite class”.

      Free libraries, museums, parks are paid for by taxes. So yes, you do pay for them. I’ve been in a bunch of cathedrals that charged for entry, yes.

          If you are making major money off of the library and cannot spare a PR or some cash, then yes, you are a parasite.
