The problem is too big.
In my opinion, the issue of investigating and prosecuting cybercriminals shouldn't completely falls on the government.  The problem itself is far too large for law enforcement to handle it on its own.  Corporations should take ownership in this problem as well.

For example, corporations should have the minimum responsiblity of securing their networks.  Many corporations leave their networks poorly defended which makes it extremely easy for attackers to infiltrate.  To use an analogy this would be like leaving your corporate building unlocked without security guards or cameras and then being surprised that someone robbed you blind.  

This shouldn't fall completely on governments as the problem itself is exacerbated by poor security practices by corporations.
