I'm not familiar with SF finances. I gather the problem with any kind of public works in the USA is that it immediately gets drowned in graft, pork and bureaucracy.

I suspect the bulk of the money in that budget is being spent on civil servants and very little of it actually reaches the people who need the help.

Doubling the budget will just attract more graft and not double the amount of help getting through. But I'm not an expert, so I may well be wrong.
