Plane Crazy?

The Australian and Malaysian governments, having already spent 94 million dollars searching for lost flight MH370, are planning to spend another $39 million if the plane isn't found by May.With all respect and sympathy to those who lost loved ones, why is it so easy to spend money on the dead but not on the living? Why do matters of pride (national honor, a business's need to get its assets off the sea floor, the need to solve a mystery) so often trump matters of heart (feeding the hungry, educating the ignorant and building infrastructure)?
