The US government has already established a program to fund diversity in the arts: the NEA. However, NEA grants involve discretionary power, which makes them a center for controversy, sometimes because a few members of the public strongly dislike the work, and sometimes because hardly anyone particularly likes it. Spreading out DAT tax revenues will also have the effect of supporting less popular musicians. However, it will not support musicians whose work nobody likes. In addition, since it involves no discretion, no arbitrary decisions, there is little room for objection on account of any particular case.
