Some people think that the government should provide assistance to all kinds of artists including painters, musicians and poets, etc. However, other people think that is a waste of money.

Many people’s lives are richer because of
art
– music, paintings, calligraphy, pictures, sculpture, poems and dance. There are some who claim that it is important to support the
artists

are the basis of a

without which the

artists
are the ambassadors of culture and play a vital role in elevating the level of civilization of the

this
is that
art
is an ancient means of communication. Our language is a result of people’s need to communicate.
Art
is what differentiates us from animals.

is our soul and it is a source of courage.

artists
say that
money
spent on the arts could have been used for considerably more vital purposes. They have strong reasons as a nation’s health and wellbeing should be paramount. The idea that elderly people are forced to wait for essential operations whilst the
money
required to increase available medical provision is spent on opera and ballet is plainly immoral. There are
also
more deserving social causes for the
money
that should be considered before the arts. Homelessness, unemployment, illiteracy – all of these deserve to be addressed before
money
is spent on what is essentially little more than entertainment. To summarise, I would like to say that as both sides have strong arguments, it depends on the condition of the
country
. In developed countries where even the poorest of the poor have all the basic amenities of life,
