I'm sure if twitter really wanted to fix the spam problem, they probably would/could have already. They seem to have the resources to tackle the problem, this poses the question: do they really want to? I'm sure on the business side of things, they measure various metrics, such as; account creation and tweets/minute/hour/day - they can then go to advertisers and tote such metrics. Perhaps tackling spam would actually hurt their bottom line? In the end, how bad does spam really affect you? I barely notice it, myself.
In the end spam == more traffic == more $$.
