Some individuals believe that spending

 on public services is indispensable, rather than spending on other art forms. While I accept public services are important to the whole society so certainly the

 believe
money

 spent on the arts is useful. On the one hand, I acknowledge that spending
money
Use synonyms
 on public services is more important. Since public services include hospitals, schools and infrastructure, which helps to give a better lifestyle to the whole community. If the higher authority does not spend a certain amount on hospitals with qualified doctors and nurses and the latest well-equipped machinery, the mortality rate will increase.
Similarly

, if

 bodies stop providing funds for schools, the younger generation who is the future of the country will not get the education and resulting in accelerating the percentage of illiteracy and unemployment, which leads economic progress slow.
On the other hand

, I would argue spending
money

 on the arts is not a waste of
money

 due to several reasons.
Firstly

, the art reflects the culture and history of the country. Many countries like the USA, Europe and India have museums and many historical buildings which attracts many tourists from other parts of the world to see them,
hence

, to maintain and preserve these monuments requires a lot of funds from the
government

 to support it.
Secondly
Linking Words
, there are many artists in the world like singers, painters and dancers to entertain society and their income completely depends on

 arts. If they do not get support from the
government

, they will be penniless.
As a result

, the artistic sector would be on the verge of disappearance. In conclusion,
although

 as important as in other sectors.
