We should spare no expense until everyone has above average healthcare.

We should spare no expense until everyone has above average education.

We should spare no expense until everyone has above average income.

We should spare no expense until everyone is above average.

No Price is too high.

Where is critical (or even common sense) thinking when we need it?
