Expenditures on arts are dispensable part of government's finance. However, some people argue that arts like music and painting can't directly improve people's life, insisting government should spend money on other important areas instead of those. Apparently, public services can obviously increase people' living standard. For example, investing much money in national health service contributes to dramatic medical advances, which can provide effective medical treatment to promote people's healthy lifestyle. Besides, spending much more money on food safety by strengthening supervision system not only enable people to have access to safe food that has high nutritional value, but also help people have a healthy and balanced diet. Perfecting public transport system is expected to expand the range of public transport services. Offering more education resources is good for improving people quality vastly. All in all, in other words, these kind of expenditures are visible. Put it in another way, most of them focus on the material well-being. Nevertheless, without the consideration of spiritual well-being, people can't be happy totally. Such high quick pace of society calls for people sacrificing a lot of time to working, which means it's necessary for people to have time relax and enjoy themselves. Arts is a good option to escape from hustle and bustle. What's more, arts cultivate people's aesthetic standards, which can help lead to innovation and creation as well.To be more extent, arts are the common language among people who have different language. Arts enable people to interact with each other,promoting the culture exchange. In a word, only the government invest in both of the infrastructure and culture industry, in order to fulfill people's different needs, can we create a healthy and vibrant society.
