This is not about libraries
But it’s something that could seriously concern our users.
I’ve been attending an E-Learning Institute that my university’s IDT and Tech Services people organized. And one of the faculty shared something a student asked recently in a class. The question isn’t even related to E-Learning. Just one of those random things that is sometime shared when a large group of people get together.
The student asked – What happens when the price of a gallon of gas is equal what a person getting minimum wage earns for an hour’s work?
Whoa! Have you thought about this? Seriously. Where I live in one of those vast flyover states, our gas prices are averaging $4 a gallon right now. And I hear that the price of a barrel of oil is expected to go up more.
So, what will happen?
Just had to share this thought with you.
