Mr. Obama’s NEA, NEH Appointments

Here’s a somewhat technical article on disappointments in Mr. Obama’s temporary (I think) appointments to federal positions in arts and humanities. Apparently, one of them is liar and the rest have little arts experience.

Why would anyone want a cabinet level office on American culture? I didn’t think people wanted government in their lives.

  1. Why would anyone want a cabinet level office on American culture? I didn’t think people wanted government in their lives.

    Writers and artists who can’t sell their work in the private market do want the government in their lives, to pay them.

  2. Indeed. From the point of view of the modern “artist” (it would appear), a federal subsidy is a basic entitlement. If they don’t get one, they’re being censored.
