well, what's the ROI (or fiscal multiplier in econ speak) of spending 300M on housing vouchers but not building more houses?
or founding more border patrols instead of local police? or funding local police, which then spends it on legal fees to fight against releasing body cam footage?
also note, that I'm not saying the people who optimize away their taxes spend it better (yachts! country clubs in the middle of the desert!)
There's a reason that every stupidly wealthy person who wants to throw their resources toward some goal either funds or starts a charity for the specific mission.
