Somehow I doubt that the management of the Cleveland Orchestra would agree with that. And even if you're right, there's a certain prestige that comes with government support that a wealthy individual can't provide, and I believe the arts are entitled to that. The government is the only entity that represents the United States as a whole, and the message needs to be sent that the arts are important enough to receive that kind of recognition.
