Well, an european wellfare society tries to solve these kinds of problems so, that it collects taxes far more than i have understood is being done in the US. With that money the society provides free, or very low cost benefits for everyone: health care, education etc etc. One part of that is a music school system, where playing an instrument is relatively cheap. But that is a world where even the right wing parties are further left than your democratic party. Although of course those parties are continuosly nagging how the wellfare society is too expensive...

The sad truth is that the hands of the society must reach the pockets where the money is and that means progressive taxing.

But the moral key question is: a child can not choose his parents, wealth, ethnicity among others. Should we try to make the world such, that every child has equal possibilities to progress? And in the end of the day have equal chances even in a blind audition!
