Absolutely. But I for one would rather live in a world that had the diversity of both private and state-funded art, each with their own biases. Surely that's better than the single influence of the market?
Virtually all governments all over the world have various arts funding schemes that covers music.
That being said I have no strong opinion either way on if that's a good thing or if the music funded this wouldn't have been funded some other way if those schemes hadn't existed

Almost no two people have the same taste in art, and what they're willing to pay for.
I doubt you'd be living in a world that doesn't have art you like if the government didn't fund it.
