On the topic of spending big money on science - it would be so awesome if we built a huge observatory on the far side of the moon. I feel like we can do some really interesting radio astronomy there, or at least copy what JWST and Hubble does but with fewer constraints, being on a large, if unstable, physical body.
As far as tax money, basic science feels like a large but very slow and unpredictable ROI
