Cultural wars or cultural stalemate?

Jeff Kennett and Jon Feine this morning: Victorian College of the Arts
When the left and the right meet, we are right to suspect trouble ; either we are in deep limbo land or perhaps, love, at last bite land . Love(of culture) is not in doubt , so we will assume that we are in a place where we don't want to be , but are no longer sure about how to get out of there.
The wheels have fallen off and we've come together to discuss, not new wheels , chassis , but how to preserve the eroded walls and floors .
VCA is not a work of Art , is it ?
Without Art indeed , we are less than human; but ,are we afraid of change for once ?
Have we really got to the bottom of the pit which Pratt himself abandoned or don't we want to discover the bare emptiness of the way we have been going - that we must keep funding it further ( in the name of independance) ? Why do the wannabes arrive only as the facade is falling (VCA) We need them to act while the building itself was crumbling ?

"Not crumbling" according to ever facade orientated pioneer of recapitalizing everything. "we painted it all" just recently?
.Jeff brings along his tried and failed means of reinvigouraging everything($) . Jon ,clearly unmoored from his reactionary roots, is unaware that he doesn't have an alternative. "How much money do you need to create good art" he might have said? How much do we have ? we have 3 tv stations to fill
. Jeffed again -
Sure its a problem for the right and a problem for the left
?Maybe its not cultural wars we need to address but cultural stalemate
