Develop culture for a better society

Culture is being undervalued and each day we forget more about it. Moreover, culture is an ineludible feature in everyone's lives. Arts have been introduced in the early days of humanity with the rural paintings and this shows we can't evolve without them.
However, currently, with the harsh economical situation we are going through, culture is being mistreated and  forgotten. Society can't go on and develop new perspectives for the future if society can't transmit its deepest feelings and the only path to achieve this is art and so the culture of each nation.
I reckon that government should be more concious of the negative effect of cuts in culture and education over society and therefore it should begin fostering this important and productive field in our lives.
