　　One of the most important services of modern government is to aggregate funds for common needs. Given the large population of different interest groups, it is almost impossible for a government to satisfy every single individual. Therefore, the government ought to be prudent while making budget plan. In my mind, to support artists is a waste of money which should be allocated to other more important fields.

　　Admittedly, artists need financial supports to develop career and explore artistic talents, especially at the very beginning. To be an artist, one has to invest a lot in tools and materials, like musicians’ instrument, painters’ pigments, photographers’ camera. Aside from large expenditures, another challenge is to become known by the public and hence attract potential buyers. Thus, without government support, artists failing to cope with these two obstacles may end up in misery or give up at early stage. On the contrary, government’s investments in arts, such as holding exhibitions and building galleries, help people with talents to give full play to their strength and contribute to culture development.

　　However, we cannot overlook the fact that the money collected from taxpayers is limited and therefore should be spent discreetly in the way that benefits as more people as possible. Actually, only a small group of people who are interested in arts visit exhibition and art gallery on a frequent basis. Most people would opt for other more secular entertainments. On the other hand, there are many aspects that are related to almost all people’s life and hence deserve more attention from the government. For instance, numerous children born in poverty stricken areas desire for better education; the spreading environmental pollution threatening people’s health and safety should be addressed timely; people are waiting for the improvement of the currently ineffective health care system.

　　To sum up, in consideration to the limitation of tax that a government is able to levy from society, the money should not be wasted on supporting artists but be spent on other more essential programs.
