Does it not strike you as incredibly naive to suggest more spending is the solution to a complex problem like this? The same thing can be done with almost any liberal policy. Why don't people see raising school taxes as an investment? Why don't people see spending more in infrastructure as an investment? Why don't people see grants for alternative energy projects as an investment? The same argument is made over and over. They do! We just have disagreements on whether or not that's the best way to solve the problem, and there always seem to be significant diminishing returns as you spend more and more money on these things. If solving complex societal issues were as simple as, "See if you spend $100 more per month, it pays off $50k later," these wouldn't be issues. But it's not that simple.
