Trust Fund
Yes, I'm an evil philistine all right. Somehow, I feel disturbed that we take
money BY FORCE from families making 25K a year to give to "artists" doing
things like coating themselves with chocolate on stage. And that is a *mild*
example, suitable for a family forum. I can't believe you have ANY idea what
sort of things those grants go for. In fact, the endowments themselves are
careful not to ask too many questions, since then they can deny knowing what
sort of thing the "artist" does with the money. Cut them off. Zero. Zilch.
Nada.
(I am handicapped by having been an art history minor in college, which makes
it difficult to appreciate "performance art." Elitist, but there it is.)
