I'm certainly not here to argue against the importance of the arts. I am a father of four children who have piano lessons and drama club. I'm certainly not here to argue against that. But we are facing a health care crisis, and I believe that physical activity and good nutrition are the cure. I think this is a targeted proposal with a benefit in terms of the cost savings for the government. That's why we think this is an initiative that is probably somewhat different from an arts funding proposal.
