"The insidious influences are anything not distinctly dominionist Christian."
I can't argue that.
"Basically, she wants the opportunity to censor what her kids read..."
No argument with this statement, either. But the refusal to pay for libraries seems to come from a "small government" mindset, rather than any opposition to paying for other people, or any interest in backing up parents who protect their children to the same level that she does. She's talking about taxes for libraries like it's picking other people's pockets to pay for the books she uses.
She spends six paragraphs arguing that point (maybe 5.1 paragraphs, given that one of them is a very short sentence), and out of that, there are two sentences that imply her interest in controlling what her children read. It's treated as a side issue in this article.
I suspect that she'd be against community centers, public swimming pools, and parks, because they aren't necessary. (Well, maybe not the parks. But I'm not placing bets.)
I agree that she's strongly dominionist Christian, and that it influences her thinking. But I think her opposition to public libraries comes from a different source.
