More Money On Injustice

   Here's one on Bushco's plans to build a new facility at Gitmo. You know, for all of those illegal military tribunals and such.

Estimated cost: $75 million to $125 Million and to be completed in July of 2007.

Time for a math lesson here from wikipedia

Most of the detainees still at Guantanamo are not scheduled for trial. As of November 2006, according to MSNBC.com, out of 775 detainees who have been brought to Guantanamo, approximately 340 have been released, leaving 435 detainees. Of those 435, 110 have been labeled as ready for release. Of the other 325, only "more than 70" will face trial, the Pentagon says. That leaves about 250 who may be held indefinitely.

Let's be generous and round "more than 70" up to 80, shall we? And based on past experience, let's assume the upper end of the cost range -- $125 million (although like the proposed border fence, this boondoggle undoubtedly will metastasize to 15 times the initial estimate). That means this construction will cost more than $1.5 million per detainee
