Not everyone can afford a computer

To the editor:If we, the people, already can't afford health care, how in the world can we, the people, afford a computer in order to reach the Internet? Can't you just see the rush to our local libraries for help? They could not handle it all.

Our governor should seriously start thinking about the less fortunate, the poor, along with all the good taxpaying people of Missouri who work for a living.

With the taxpayers footing the bill for computers and electronic equipment the government has access to, not to mention the governor's salary of $120,000-plus, the governor fails to think about the poor taxpayers not being able to afford computers as well as being trained to use them.

Think about it, all you good citizens of Missouri. Where is our governor coming from?
