The flip answer is something along the lines of "A civilized society must always find funding for artistic expression".
I see that as balderdash. A civilized society would not put spending on luxuries like painting, music and dance above spending on life or death issues like health care.
If the "artists" want to express themselves, let them do it without spending scarce public money.
