Ok Coldwarrior what sort of return would you expect for 50 million? Stimulating the arts and creative industry’s is more than worth while. How much wealth has say some body like Jonathan Paul Ive generated for Apple? Did he pay for his arts education? How much has the Edinburgh festival generated for Scotland? How many people visited Bilbo in Spain before they became a major arts centre?
Return?
its NOT the Gov's money to spend. Whats the problem with letting the people that earn there money keep it and spend it how they see fit?
if you wish to fund the arts , then when you do your taxes add in some extra . you do not by law have to pay the manditory minimum. Walk the talk.
