Some
people think that governments should invest more in public services instead of
wasting money on arts such as music and paintings. To what extent do you agree
or disagree?
----------------------------
Indeed
Governments must spend towards public service and they do, however to say that
spending toward arts, music, paintings is a waste of money is totally wrong. In
this essay we will look at the either perspectives.
Government
by definition means a group of people elected by the majority of the population
to govern a country or a state. Government is necessary to the existence of
civilised society. It is responsible for a good governance and administration
in the interest of the population by large. Public service comprises mainly of providing
schools, Colleges, Hospitals, Railways, Airways, Roadways, Seaway and allied
infrastructure facilities.Respective governments ensure this for the economic
growth of the nation and its nationals.
Art
comprises of several items of arts. Some of the things are drawing, painting,
music, dancing, drama, sculpture and many more. Not forgetting Cinema and
Television soaps which are most popular these days. Paintings are displayed in
the Art Gallery and this becomes the main source of attracting tourists and
earning revenue for the country. Cinema
and Television is a very big entertainment industry earning immense revenue for
the country. Similarly painting, music, dancing and drama are no exception to
earning huge revenue for the country and countrymen. These industries contribute
greatly toward economic growth of the nation by way of earning revenue and jobs
for its population by large.
In
nutshell, governments must spend adequately towards the need fulfilment of the
population by large as well as the arts, painting, music, dancing, drama,
sculpture and many more like Cinema and Television soaps etc. But to say that
spending toward the latter is a waste of money is absolutely wrong.
