Well, I've always been one that is in favor for governmant support for the arts. Generally speaking, I think we spend way too much money "protecting" ourselves and medeling in other country's affairs rather than improving our own country and educating our constituency. I'd rather have a governmant that was supportive of education and the arts first, since I believe that is what is one of the cornerstone of a great country.

But, this is where I am most liberal.

The constant cuts to the PCE and other public cultural oranizations saddens me, not for the amount of money that will be lost but for the example the government sets for the rest of the nation. Our leadership is narrow minded and short sighted and I find it extremly sad.
