Sure. But that doesn't change people being upset that this is prioritised over living standards and lifestyles. People want that solved first and that's a perfectly ok emotion to be having that shouldn't be chastised.
The thing to push is that with capitalism is that they would rather fund this than feed and house people, because not feeding people is the point, by design. Even if this is unprofitable, it's still a thing they'd prefer to spend on than feed or house people.
