Importance of art responce.

I disagree with the post because I feel that people who say this think that work is the only thing to do in life. I feel that they are completely wrong in what they are saying because this is a strange thing to say. Public tax dollars are spent on teaching kids to learn and teaching art and the history of it is just as important as teaching the geography of the Urals. What I mean by this is that art isn't the most important thing to teach in schools but it is a fundamental thing in life. We are surrounded by art every day.
