Because the arts are not allowed to own vast swaths of prime property with no requirement to pay property taxes.

Re: Separation of Arts and State
Does the VAG pay taxes?
Not that it matters. The point he's making is that some artists get public funding while others don't. Separation means the state doesn't give different rules to different groups.
I'm in favour of arts funding myself (CBC, etc.), but others like Dennis aren't. I posted this for them, not for me.
