Some people think governments should spend less money on arts and invest more in education. How far do you agree or disagree with this opinion?

Many governments today allocate significant portions of their national budgets to the

although

it is vital that more money is spent on education, as well. Decreasing public financial support for

art

would definitely leave normal people with little or no access to original fine

art

is immensely sought and supported by the private sector in most parts of the world, with

galleries and agents investing heavily in famous professional artists so that they can sell their works to wealthy private collectors.

Therefore

sector, there will practically be no paintings, sculptures or other forms of

art

available for ordinary citizens to enjoy, which can not only diminish their pursuit of beauty and perfection, but

also

leave them more depressed and passive, even vulgar.

means that the more money is spent on educational facilities and equipment and the more budget is allocated to supporting students and educators, the more likely it is for a country to develop. In conclusion, I think governments ought to maintain their financial support for arts while increasing education budgets, ensuring both continued access to fine arts for their citizens and sustained development
