because fixing a problem in the United States won't line anyones pockets with dollar bills.

Someone saw a problem, figured HOW to financially gain from said problem, not solve the problem in order to financially gain from it. So some company has scored a contract to patrol schools with drones in order to "prevent" school shootings and we know they won't and the US tax payer will pay for it.

Problems in the United States are never fixed, they're handled.

The only way it will be fixed is when people stop going after random public school kids and start going after the rich.
