One day somebody will have both a vision of what should be done and the funding to put it into practice.

Peter, as JSP pointed out, the funding is there. Moreover the funding can and will be increased at the drop of hat; just as long as it is for prisons, whiz-bang 'employment' training and the hiring of consultants from zones where our present problems are as nothing by comparison.
And, dare I say, the vision is there also. It is perhaps the will that is as yet un-realised.
And, as for the 'person', "Cometh the hour..." and all that?
Ignorance is bliss, bliss is happiness, I am happy...to draw your attention to the possible connectivity in the foregoing.

there are many youths that do good work throughout our communities and they get lost in all the anti youth stories.
but to get back to the story you are correct it is wrong to just ignore the problem of unemployment
