lpv:translated text	". In a world in which money rules, neither culture in general nor the performing arts in particular escape this domination. Private investors, bent on making a profit, will only become involved to the extent that they can make money, either directly or in the form of tax relief. At a time when the Member States and public institutions have but one word on their lips, ‘savings’, this means that culture is demoted still further, receiving the meanest share. And the first to suffer are the people at the bottom of the pile, the people on the lowest rung of the industry such as those who work in the entertainment industry without steady employment, who are currently on strike in France in protest against what is threatening to exacerbate their already precarious situation. We are against giving public money to companies and to the wealthy, including money given in the form of tax benefits for patronage or sponsorship which benefit those who present themselves as patrons while taking more than their due, without essentially changing anything about the situation of the vast majority of artists and workers in the performing arts. It is therefore despite this measure, advocated by the rapporteur, that we voted for a report which, as a whole, if it were followed up by practical action, would improve the living and working conditions of workers in the performing arts sector."@en1
