Bookstore Debate: Mental Patients Are In Control

Recently, a debate was had. On one side we had a Vienna resident saying that Vienna could really use a bookstore, it's own Borders or Barnes & Noble. The other person said, "No, we don't need that, the Freeman Store sells books." The person with that view has a husband on the Board of Directors of Historic Vienna, Inc. Better yet; the husband was once named Vienna citizen of the year! Ladies and gentleman, the power reigns in Vienna are currently held by fools who actively work against the overall betterment of the community. We don't need a bookstore because the Freeman Store sells a few dozen books about making rock candy and phony Vienna histories? Yes, someone in power really thinks that way.

Comments

Vienna doesn't need any stores or services that would bring it into the 21st century. In fact, we prefer to remain the place we were in the 1950s. It worked fine then; why not just keep it that way?
