Equally so- how about looking a the decline of arts funding and the
corresponding rise of youth violence int he past two decades- I seem to
have noticed a couple of books of late on the value of "real" arts
training in schools to the intellectual and emotional development of
youth, and I do not mean the "crafty" projects children are forced to
endure because schools do not understand how to incorporate basic art
into their programs, let alone understanding this is something they
should be standing strong for against cheap politicians.

In other words- between the value of the NEA and art for youth, perhaps
you can discover some groundbreaking theory on the overall economic
value of art and develop decision-making policies?

good luck!
