Government investment in the arts, such as music and theatre, is a waste of money. Governments must invest this money in public services instead. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

These days, some people argue that government spending a part of its budget on arts is wasteful, and that money should be fully invested in developing public services. Although I agree that it is important to spend money on public services, I do not think spending on arts is a waste of money.

There are several reasons for spending a significant amount of the government budget on public services. First and foremost, people who live in modern society cannot leave public services, including city transportation, electricity supplement, schools and hospitals. It is true that advances in these things have benefited citizens in many aspects. For example, if government spends a larger amount of its budget on public transportation, commuters are able to have less worry about road congestion. Similarly, if more money spent on school construction, children may have more opportunities to receive education. Moreover, the poor in our society will be affected more if government does not spend enough on these things because they are more dependent on such services.

However, we cannot completely neglect the importance of arts. To begin, it is difficult for many arts institutions, such as art galleries, history museums and theaters, to gain profits without the financial support from government. Furthermore, people need these institutions to entertain and inspire their creativity. Many employments these days require creative writing and a good taste of beauty. If government suspends its financial assistance in these institutions, the younger generation will not be educated in a highly developed cultural environment and may negatively affect their future jobs.

In conclusion, there are clear benefits of ensuring a large amount of investments goes into public services. However, I do not believe that spending money on the arts is a waste of money as this also improves people’s life quality.
