It's really a drop in the bucket, isn't it? 150 people isn't even a blip here, hardly makes the village news anymore. When you need continuous (and I mean since inception) subsidies to survive then you can't figure on a sustainable business model - it's not a "regular" business anymore - profit and loss are no longer in the picture when you depend on charity. I'm not arguing that public funding of the arts isn't a good thing, but it will always be at the whim of the donors, whether it be private, public, or church-based.
