    well, i'm going to jump ships on this (well, not complete) as a result of a very persuasive talk given at ted. http://www.ted.com/index.php/talks/view/id/66

    i think arts and creativity in education are really important, but i also think that refinements and improvements in the other fields need to happen too.

    Stealing tax dollars? You make the arts out to be some sort of sheriff nottingham! This is what tax dollars are for!

    I love and wholly support the arts, but that isn't really the governments job. This is not what tax dollars are for.

    the retorts here are many, but I will suffice it to say that the majority of Americans would probably not agree with the eventual destination of a lot of their hard-earned tax dollars.
