We, as taxpayers and citizens of this community, proclaim our support for art and artistic endeavor when the freedom of participation is as freely available as the freedom to not participate. We support a privately-funded arts council - but we hereby announce our opposition to any taxpayer funds being allocated for this purpose. Our votes at election time will reflect negatively on any elected official that supports using our tax dollars for this purpose.

Stop wasting our money on nonsense. We have actual problems like road repairs that need the funding, not fancy paintings.

MY TAXES ARE TOO HIGH ALREADY. if people want art they can pay for it themselves out of their own pockets.
