Some people think that the government is wasting money on the arts and that this money could be spent elsewhere. To what extend do you agree or disagree with this?
Nowadays, a great deal of attention has been paid to the
arts
. A certain proportion of people opine that the government
should cut budgets that are used for the arts
, and use them for other purposes. I strongly agree with the idea because the arts
not worth investment, and there are more important areas such
as education
.
To begin
with, the first
reason why I believe the government
should not use the money
for the arts
is that they can get fewer returns from the arts
. Firstly
, fine arts
require lots of money
, and many museums suffer from managing money
for facilities and staffs. In facts, Musse du Louvre rose the entrance fee in 2013 since they needed to prepare money
for a facility that is
dedicated to the arts
and professional staffs. Despite that cost a lot, the arts
hardly produce profits. In fact, 75% of Japanese think that they can enter museums for free.
Another reason for supporting my agreement is that there are by far important sectors that need budgets. Take education
, for example
, giving good education
for youngsters will rise their future salary, and this
results in increasing national wealth in the future. On top of that, despite the importance of education
, one in seven youngsters in Japan are raised in poverty, and they do not afford to pay tuition for higher education
. In fact, the child poverty rate in Japan ranked at the highest level among OECD countries.
In conclusion, I reiterate my complete agreement that the government
should use the budget not for the arts
but for others. This
is because the government
can receive fewer returns from the arts
, and there are more serious problems that the government
should invest such
as education
