In San Diego, and maybe your town, the "arts" community is more concerned about art exhibits, dance troupes and propaganda documentaries than they are about the safety of the citizens.
"A couple of emails have been making the rounds of the local arts organizations today about the news that Councilman Carl DeMaio proposes cuts to arts and culture in his financial plan.
• The first: A group of local arts and culture leaders put their heads together to respond to DeMaio's proposed cuts. You can read their answer in the comments below our post, penned by Seema Sueko, artistic director of Mo'olelo Performing Arts Company.
Sueko touted the fact that the city's Commission for Arts and Culture is funded entirely through the tax on hotel guests, not city residents. "The return on investment in arts and culture gives us a competitive edge when we promote San Diego as a high quality, diverse cultural destination," she said."
If you like "art" pay for it yourself. The purpose of government is NOT ballet; it is protection of the citizens. San Diego is a bankrupt city, they can not afford police to protect citizens, and how can they afford sponsoring documentaries that call cops fascists?
