[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh please. Why keep throwing good money after bad? If the National Phil has a crappy business model, that’s not the Council’s fault. [/quote] There are lots of things the government subsidizes despite their crappy business models. Public schools, for example. Also, roads. So why not the arts?[/quote] Because both the Executive and Council give out millions in grants each year. When they tell one particular business to shape up....for years....and they don’t, there’s no need to keep giving money. There are other deserving arts programs out there that are managing their businesses better, and therefore are more appropriate recipients of tax dollars.[/quote]
