The reason that government-who is in dispose of public money-is elected primarily to improve the social welfare of its people. As long as people in a society lack the basic need, such as medical care or education , the use of public funds to support theatres and sports stadiums is inappropriate-and, perhaps, even cruel-when one considers all the potential uses of such money.
According to the psychological pundit Maslo, human needs can be classified into five categories: survival, safety and love, others recognition, self-realization, and spiritual refinement. Among the five categories, the need for medical care and education is on the lowest floor of the pyramid and is also crucial.
The basic function of theatres and sport stadiums is to give people large extent of pleasure in order to ensure them to work more effectively and efficiently to contribute more to the society. While them, classified into the category of spiritual refinement, is at the pinnacle of the pyramid. If we to realize our spiritual refinement, we should first fulfill our basic need. Or our seemingly resplendent pyramid is on the verge of collapse due to its lack of a solid plinth.
The first and foremost step of its aim to fund medical care and education is to satisfy basic need. In case that such the condition as described in the topic happened (though very rarely), the government will be overturned. See multitudes of revolts of peasants in China's history.
Even though people's basic needs can be fulfilled, the society, especially the government, should not use all its money to the theatres and sports stadiums, a proper proportion of the investment must be considered exactly.
