The arts usually don't need more funding. It's not because they aren't important, but because getting exposure to the arts is usually extremely inexpensive.
1) You can go on youtube and find free videos of every genre from rap, to classic rock, to baroque opera to Mongolian Throat Singing
2) The library is free
3) The human voice is free
Sure, maybe you need a bit for paint supplies, instruments and the occasional class trip, but by and large, just because something is important doesn't mean it has to be expensive. Seriously though, do you know anyone around today who doesn't have near constant exposure to like 10 different genres of music? The idea that we need exorbitant school district spending to facilitate this is absurd and wasteful.
