Yes, for the mere fact that we are not Greek 

Just joking, I was just using the Greeks and their addiction to welfare as an isolated example. It's not about Greece per se.

I'm a bit surprised that some of the comments show that they know more about the point I was trying to make than I do.

Yes, of course art is of great value. It's a bit sad that most of the buildings created these days don't have much flare to them.
I sometimes wonder where the value is in putting a person through the education system and using all of those resources only to churn out an uncreative clone. That's not always the case, but often it seems that way.
