Governments give lots of support to artists, even though some people think its a waste of money that could have been spent better elsewhere

Many artists are well supported by their governments, but some feel that

of taxpayers’

money

.

Although

many artists couldn’t continue to work without

this

support, I feel that public

healthcare

health care

is in more urgent need of the

money

. On the one hand, it is difficult for many arts institutions to generate profit, so without some help from the government, many theatres and other

such

places may have to close. It is important that the government assists

such

institutions so that they can continue to provide entertainment to the public.

For example

, there are many open-air concerts in the summer months in my

hometown which

hometown, which

wouldn’t exist without the financial backing of the local council.

However

, I would argue that if these places were popular enough, they would be able to generate their own income.

On the other hand

, public hospitals all over the world are under financial strain. It would seem obvious that people’s health is of more importance than people’s entertainment, so

this

money

should be given to hospitals to upgrade equipment and shorten waiting lists.

For instance

, Downshire Hospital in Ireland has blamed the lack of public funding for their shortage of nurses and available beds.

Therefore

, I believe that the

money

given to artists should be redirected into the

healthcare

system. In conclusion,

although

we may have fewer opportunities to enjoy the work of artists, I maintain that the

money

should be put into hospitals because people’s health is a more
