They don't really want to address the root of any of it.
Keeps people needing them.
My sister and I had a long conversation about root of problems vs. covering with a band-aid, regarding the gun debate and mental illness.
They've got to dig deep to find the root of any problem; it's a long drawn out slowly working system and cannot show any immediate results, while throwing $$$$$ at something makes them sound like they're doing something.
I completely agree with your words BC. Unfortunately, giving more money isn't the answer.
