　　Whether or not governments should financially support musicians, filmmakers, and artists is an often debated topic. While some people may feel that governments should not financially support artists for they contribute little to the country's finance, 1 do not believe that this is the case. A world without music, film, or other arts would be very boring, and very bleak. The arts enrich people's lives and provide an outlet for self-expression. 1 believe that governments should financially support musicians, filmmakers, and artists because people need the release that art gives them. In addition, art can often bring in massive profits for all those involved and says a lot about the culture from which it originates.

　　First, governments must understand that art gives both the artists and audiences a sense of pleasure and release, which is important for a happy population.Whether it is a time of peace or war，economic prosperity or recession, people are always creating art to comment on the times. If the government does not fund arts, then people may be left without an outlet for self-expression and relaxation, which may affect the happiness of a country's population as a whole.In countries that do not sponsor musicians and filmmakers, there is often a great sense of general dissatisfaction. Nations with a strong interest in arts tend to have a much higher index of happiness.Therefore, if governments want to avoid a distrustful public，they should invest in different kinds of arts.

　　Furthermore, investing in the arts often yields great profits for all parties involved，if governments are smart about whom they invest in.Many government-sponsored art projects throughout the world have brought in increased tourism and millions of dollars in state revenue. Putting some money into music, film, and other art forms can actually make a country stronger economically.For example, most of France’s tourism comes from people interested in their museums, architecture, music, and film. The same goes for many Asian countries.

　　On the contrary，countries that do not sponsor arts are always the ones that struggle to appeal to tourists.

　　Finally, a nation’s art tells about its culture and character, every government should be interested in this.When historians look back on ancient cultures，the first thing they examine is always the art and architecture that culture produced, because we know that a culture and the art it produces are deeply intertwined.Almost everything we know about ancient China comes from their architecture, paintings，poetry, stories, and music. The same is true of many other cultures.If governments want people to remember and respect their nation in the future，they should dedicate more attention and resources to sponsoring the arts.

　　When governments ignore artistic expression，it is usually indicative of an ignorance about the nation's culture and history. Art gives release, brings in national revenue, and documents history, so conservation and support of the arts is something all governments should focus more on.
