Sorry for the formatting fail, here's a second try: Spending that kind of money per prisoner is absolutely staggering. It is equivalent to: > Each prisoner has their own $400 per night hotel room > Each prisoner has all their meals in the hotel restaurant with a $50 budget for each of their three meals per day > Each prisoner has $50 per day for sundries (toothpaste, uniforms etc) Each prisoner has their own 100% dedicated guard, assuming four shifts on a 7-day fortnight rotation whose payroll costs are 50% above USA median wage > At the end of every single day, every prisoner celebrates by drinking a whole $100 bottle of champagne
