Is it unreasonable to ask how much it will cost to fix the the social problems that everybody complains about when black folks get shot by police?

Every time black folks get shot by police in an urban area, the discussion eventually winds up being a commentary on the fact that taxpayers are not giving up enough money to fix this or that social problem.

And, perhaps that is true.

But isn’t it reasonable for tax payers to know the amount of money it will take to fix the problem?

Otherwise, in my opinion, it is sort of like a landlord telling you that you are not paying enough rent, but they will not tell you how much is enough, so you are always left in doubt whether or not you can afford the rent.
