I find the funding of municipal symphonies offensive since they play music composed by foreigners. Can we get rid of those too?

Seriously, where do you draw the line? Either you agree to fund art or you don't. I certainly don't want you picking what artists get funded and which don't. At least with the current setup in the NEA, they have set critera. If you don't like what's being put out there, get them to change their requirements.
